    Navigating the frontier of AI-assisted student assignments: challenges, skills, and solutions

    In this episode of The APS Publications Podcast, featuring Advances in Physiology Education, coauthors Suzanne Estaphan, David Kramer, and Harry Witchel discuss their recently published article, “Navigating the frontier of AI-assisted student assignments: challenges, skills, and solutions.” This paper presents a framework to effectively design take-home assessments in the generative artificial intelligence (AI) era with four key recommendations to navigate the challenges and opportunities posed by generative AI. From codeveloping AI literacy to fostering human-AI collaboration, the strategies empower educators to promote authentic learning, critical thinking, and ethical AI use. Adaptable to various contexts, these insights help prepare students for an AI-driven future while maintaining academic rigor and integrity.

    The chick embryo model as an educational tool to explore the effect of alcohol on cardiovascular development

    In this episode of the APS Publications Podcast, featuring an article from Advances in Physiology Education, authors Declan McLaughlin, Aisling Keane, and Joe Quinn discuss their recently published article, “The chick embryo model as an educational tool to explore the effect of alcohol on cardiovascular development.” This study explores the use of the chick embryo model as a teaching aid to illustrate connections between anatomy and physiology during development. Providing direct observation opportunities, the model allows students to witness organ formation and the impact of teratogens, focusing on cardiovascular abnormalities associated with fetal alcohol syndrome. The paper outlines practical methodologies to assess developmental outcomes. Its adaptability, affordability, and ability to spark discussions make the model a valuable resource for diverse educational environments.

    Jigsaw technique: will it help Gen Z nursing students?

    In this podcast, Dr. Rashmi Chandel discusses the recently published article, "Jigsaw technique: Will it help Gen Z nursing students?" This study examines the effectiveness of the jigsaw technique (JST) as a student-centered learning strategy for engaging Generation Z undergraduate nursing students. Recognizing Gen Z learners’ distinct cognitive styles and preferences, the research compares JST with conventional lectures across four physiology modules using a crossover design. Results showed significantly higher pretest, posttest, and retention scores with JST in most modules, along with strong positive student feedback regarding engagement, understanding, communication, and peer interaction. Overall, the findings suggest that integrating JST into nursing education can enhance learning outcomes while fostering essential interpersonal and professional skills in future nurses. Jigsaw technique: will it help Gen Z nursing students? Rashmi Chandel, Anumeha Bhagat, Anita S. Malhotra, Ravi Rohilla, Gurjit Kaur, and Kiran Prakash Advances in Physiology Education 2025 49:2, 304-313
