FSCI 396 is an elective 3-credit independent study course that brings students, faculty, and staff together to perform projects aimed at researching and addressing issues in science education at the university level. Those who wish to undertake a longer project can complete FSCI 398 D1/D2 (two term 6-credit version of FSCI 396). FSCI 397 is available for those who would like to undertake a second project (one term 3-credit).
Stream A: Students register to take part in a research project investigating how assessment type and study strategies impact student well-being and academic outcomes in introductory science courses at McGill.
Stream B: Instructors select a student and submit an application for an independent research project on a teaching and learning topic of their choice. While students may not directly submit a proposal, they are invited to approach an instructor to collaborate on a project proposal.
