Frequency of use of instructional practices by Faculty Scholars before and after CISL program participation. This figure shows frequency of use of student-centered (A) and instructor-centered (B) instructional practices for a sample of Faculty Scholars, before or after participation in the CISL program. The faculty reported their frequency of use of instructional practices in the STEM course they most frequently teach either in the most recent occasion they taught the course (i.e., treatment, after CISL participation, in purple) or in the oldest occasion in the last 5 years (i.e., control, before CISL participation, in green). The boxplots show the distribution of responses, with the median indicated by the middle horizontal line, the box representing the middle 50% of scores for the population, and the upper and lower whiskers indicating the range of the upper and lower quartile, respectively. Please note that items with highly skewed responses (e.g., Lecture, control) will have compressed boxplots. The y-axis is a linearized scale of the frequency of use of instructional practices in a term, using the monthly frequency as the unit with 0 = ”Never”, 0.5 = “1–2 times per term”, 1 = “Monthly”, 4 = “Weekly”, and 10 = “Every class”
