A Call for a Community of Practice to Assess the Impact of Emerging Technologies on Undergraduate Biology Education

Recent recommendations for educational research encourage empirically tested, theory-based, completely transparent, and broadly applicable studies. In light of these recommendations, we call for a research standard and community of practice in the evaluation of technology use in the undergraduate li...
