Research Interests
My primary research focus involves undergraduate food science education. I am most interested in how students effectively learn the concepts most important to food science and their careers, and how to best design courses to meet these needs. Currently efforts involve the use of active, student centered learning modalities such at collaborative and cooperative learning, problem-based learning, and the use of case studies. Pilots studies have shown that most food science students prefer to be passive learners (“just tell me what is going to be on the test”) and lack awareness of the true skills required for their careers. Recent research efforts have shown that while food science students reject collective problem-based learning, their performance on standardized exam questions and exercises demonstrate short and long term gains in food science concepts and success skills sought by the food science industry exceed those of students taught by traditional lecture based methods.
