Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates the implementation and educational benefits of course-based research experiences (CRE) in STEM education over three years, involving 102 instructors from the SEA-PHAGES program.
- - The research includes surveys and feedback sessions to understand instructors' perspectives on the goals and teaching practices of CRE, ultimately utilizing qualitative content analysis.
- - Findings reveal three instructional models for CRE teaching: 1) acting as a scientist and generating data, 2) teaching procedural knowledge, and 3) promoting project ownership, which help inform new instructors and institutions about effective CRE instruction.

Article Synopsis
- - Three bacteriophages named AlleyCat, Edugator, and Guillsminger were isolated from enriched soil samples using a specific medium (mc155).
- - All three belong to the same mycobacteriophage subcluster K5 and have genomes ranging from 62,112 to 63,344 base pairs.
- - Each phage has between 92 to 99 predicted protein-coding genes and one tRNA, with Guillsminger being unique as the first mycobacteriophage found to carry an IS family transposon.
