TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the effects of positive interdependence vs. no-interdependence on students' academic achievement and found that students in the positive-interdependent condition engaged in significantly more interaction and more promotive interaction while taking the electronic quizzes and achieved higher scores on the subsequent examinations taken individually.

TL;DR: The strategy of a choreographed dance as described in this article could also be considered a blueprint for teachers if they wish to construct a similar activity in a different topic which may be more relevant to their own students.

TL;DR: A comparison of two different instruction methodologies, Traditional Instruction Methodology (TIM) and Inverted Instruction Methodological (IIM), in terms of students’ perceptions and emotions in a science course showed that the IIM had a significant influence in students” perceptions toward the course and made classes more interactive.

TL;DR: The use of games was equally popular in family medicine and internal medicine residency programs and popularity was inversely associated with more than 75% of residents in the program being International Medical Graduates.

TL;DR: A model for the evolution of phytoplankton and zooplankon populations which resembles models for the behaviour of excitable media is presented, and the parameter dependency of the various “excitable” phenomena, trigger mechanism, threshold, and slow recovery, is clear.

TL;DR: The notion of a wave family, and various ecologically relevant scenarios in which periodic travelling waves occur are described, and 10 research challenges in this area are proposed, five mathematical and five empirical.

TL;DR: In this paper, a new method for monitoring the relative activity of antioxidants is presented, and its advantages and limits are discussed. The method is based on the previously reported inhibitory effects of free-radical scavengers on the oscillations of the Briggs-Rauscher reaction.

TL;DR: In this paper, the Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction was used to measure the rate constants with a Ruler, and the BZ waves were used to simulate the Briggs-Rauscher reaction.
