    Evolution in the Caribbean Classroom: A Critical Analysis of the Role of Biology Teachers and Science Standards in Shaping Evolution Instruction in Belize

    No full text
    A survey of the literature on evolution instruction provides evidence that teachers\u27 personal views and understandings can shape instructional approaches and content delivered in science classrooms regardless of established science standards. This study is the first to quantify evolutionary worldviews of in-service teachers in the Caribbean, specifically in Belize, an English-speaking nation with a high school system guided by a regional biology syllabus and strict standardized tests. Using the Measure of Acceptance of the Theory of Evolution (MATE) instrument and knowledge test, we investigated (1) the current level of acceptance and understanding of evolution as given by 97% of high school biology teachers in Belize; (2) the factors associated with acceptance and understanding of evolutionary theory. With an average MATE score of 64.4 and a mean knowledge score of 47.9%, Belizean teachers were classified as having both Low Acceptance and Low Understanding of evolutionary theory. A positive correlation was found between teacher acceptance and understanding of evolution. A review of the Caribbean Secondary Examination Certificate biology syllabus suggests that evolution plays a minimal role in the high school biology classroom. We believe that Belize presents a unique opening for future training on evolution instruction since 57% of the biology teachers self-proclaim to be unprepared to teach evolution. The results of this study have implications for policy, practice and research with teachers\u27 acceptance, understanding and confidence in teaching evolution serving as important predictors for instructional approaches used in the biology classroom.

    Fabrication of bismuth ferrite nanoparticles via pulsed laser ablation in liquid

    No full text
    Bismuth ferrite (BFO) is a room-temperature multiferroic material which exhibits an above-bandgap photovoltaic response as well as photocatalytic properties. This interesting coupling of effects means that BFO may have many useful applications in fields ranging from solar energy generation to multifunctional electronic devices. Herein, bismuth ferrite nanoparticles are fabricated using pulsed laser ablation in liquid (PLAL), a quick, simple, green technique of nanostructure generation in which a bulk solid target is irradiated with incident pulsed laser light in a liquid. The extreme temperatures and pressures generated in the resulting plasma can result in novel nanostructures and even metastable phases of nanomaterials not otherwise able to be created. Raman spectroscopy indicates the fabrication of a metastable phase of tetragonal-like BFO nanoparticles by pulsed laser ablation in liquid. These nanoparticles are also shown to be very small and monodisperse. Bulk solid solutions of BFO were prepared by conventional solid state sintering. Raman spectra of the bulk BFO samples were in agreement with published spectra for rhombohedrally distorted phase BFO with R3c symmetry. The bulk BFO was then ablated via PLAL, varying parameters of laser wavelength, energy, and liquid composition. PLAL yielded colloidal solutions of nanoparticles which were then characterized. Furthermore post laser irradiation (PLI) was carried out upon the nanoparticle solutions resulting in smaller and more monodisperse nanoparticles.M.S.Includes bibliographical referencesby Tyler Christian Butle
