Enlightening Minds: Research Review 2011 – 2012
Collaborative Research: a model that works
 |
| Dr. Joseph A. Kloba |
Students often remark that what makes Palm Beach Atlantic University
special is “the professors.”
Current students as well as alumni enthusiastically describe the many ways that PBA professors stimulate and energize learning in the classroom.
They tell of the professors’ selfless sharing of time and Christ-like encouragement in advising, mentoring and counseling outside the classroom. Students share how their professors integrate their research and professional work in their courses and engage them in these endeavors. This collaboration has resulted in the publication of student-professor co-authored articles as well as student-professor presentations made at professional meetings.
Over the last 10 years, PBA has provided increased support for faculty and student research by granting sabbatical study leaves for 25 faculty members, course load reductions for research for 12 faculty members, and funding for quality initiative research grants to 90 faculty and 90 student projects.
This publication highlights the research and professional work of many of our PBA teacher-scholars in the 2011-2012 academic year. As you will see in the following pages, PBA professors are truly impacting the lives of our students and their future by the quantity and quality of their scholarly work.

| Dr. Paul Copan |
Q: What motivated you to become an author?
A: When I was young, I enjoyed collecting and synthesizing information and compiling interesting quotations. Through the years, and with the advent of personal computers in particular, I have continued to research, gather and organize material in areas of strong interest - philosophy, theology, biblical studies, history/church history - into lecture and handout materials. Some have told me that the epitaph on my tombstone will be, “He had a handout!” At any rate, this sort of thing leads somewhat naturally to putting some of those materials into book form.
Q: Where do you get your inspiration?
A: I am motivated by Christ’s claim on my life and living for God’s kingdom. My writings in philosophy of religion and apologetics flow from this. I not only desire to see biblically-informed philosophical reasoning penetrate a largely secular academy in our culture; I also want to make resources accessible to the church in order to strengthen believers’ faith and enhance their witness in the world.
Q: Who is your favorite author?
A: I’ve greatly profited from the writings of C.S. Lewis - a clear, engaging writer who blends a warm devotion to Christ and writes on a range of topics to show how the Christian faith has a bearing on these disciplines.
Q: How many books/papers have you written?
A: I have edited or authored more than 20 books - with 8 or 9 in the pipeline - and I have contributed essays to more than 20 books authored by others. My books are generally available in North America, but some of them have been translated into Spanish and Portuguese. Of course, the Internet makes the books available worldwide.
Q: What books do you have in the works?
A: Several book projects are in the soliciting or contract stage. I have two forthcoming books on the immediate horizon: my coedited Come Let Us Reason: New Essays in Christian Apologetics (to be released mid-April) and Old Testament “Holy War” and Christian Morality (to be released this summer or fall with IVP Academic). On the more distant horizon, I am coauthoring a book on the moral argument (Continuum), another on biblical ethics (IVP Academic), and a third on the relevance of Paul’s Athens speech in Acts 17 for our own era (InterVarsity Press). I have just signed a contract to be a coeditor for the Zondervan Dictionary of Christianity and Science.
Q: Have you received awards for your work?
A: My coedited Routledge Companion to Philosophy of Religion was acknowledged as one of Cambridge’s International Society for Science and Religion’s top books in their “Library Project” (2009). I have coedited The Apologetics Study Bible, which won the Retailers Choices Award (2008), and my coauthored Creation Out of Nothing was an ECPA Gold Medallion Award Finalist (2005).
I also have contributed to several books that have received awards: Francis Beckwith, et al., The New Mormon Challenge received The ECPA Gold Medallion Award (2003); Lee Strobel’s The Case for the Real Jesus was awarded the Retailers Choice Award (2008); William Craig and Chad Meister’s God Is Great, God Is Good earned the Christianity Today Book of the Year Award (2010).
Q: Who do you write for as an author?
A: I try to write for both the scholarly community and the thinking common person. I am concerned about making resources available to the academic as well as to Christians in the pew. I rejoice that God has used some of my books in the lives of unbelievers to help them move to faith in Christ.
Q: What do you want your readers to know after reading your books?
A: I pray that God will use my work to help believers to think and thinkers to believe. I want to exemplify the importance of honoring and worshiping God by the use of the mind and careful reflection − that we can love the Lord our God with all our mind. I desire to see God draw people to him through the intellectual appeal of Christ as well as to help express the reasonableness and beauty of the Christian faith.

Florida’s biologically rich coast
provides diverse research opportunities for faculty and students
Associate Professor Thomas Chesnes has an infectious enthusiasm for field biology that has life-changing effects on his students. As he works closely with them during their senior research projects, many students discover their true calling.
 |

| Kate Swick '11 and Dr. Thomas Chesnes |
“Because of PBA’s low student-teacher ratio, I have the ability to individually mentor my students,” Dr. Chesnes said. “Whether we are working in the lab with our findings, out in the field gathering data, or discussing the importance of publishing their research in peer-reviewed journals, our focus is how this entire academic process helps them in their careers and in pursuing more education.”
Dr. Chesnes is fortunate to have one of the world’s most diverse and convenient natural aquatic ecosystems surrounding PBA’s campus, where he and his students can do ecological assessments, learn about a wide range of species, measure diversity and critical habitats, and evaluate species.
For recent graduate Katie Swick, who majored in molecular biology and biotechnology, Dr. Chesnes has been a tremendous influence on exposing her to different aspects of science and the high level of discipline it takes to be a successful field researcher.
“I chose to survey macro algae in MacArthur Beach State Park for my senior project,” Swick said. “Dr. Chesnes taught me to watch the tides for the best snorkeling times and to systematically conduct my underwater research so that my data and sample collections were accurately documented. My senior research project took a lot of commitment and patience and helped me understand what it takes to be a field biologist.”
As Dr. Chesnes talks about his students’ research projects, he proudly conveys the groundbreaking data
many of them have documented. In fact, Swick’s macro algae findings will be published with his recent study of seagrass.
“Guiding my students into their chosen career paths and watching them develop their own passions for the many facets of biology is very rewarding,” Dr. Chesnes said. “But when they are out working in the biology field and I see them in my own peer groups, now that’s when it comes full circle and I am really proud.”
Residency Program Inspires Pharmacists
Amanda Brahim ’11 Pharm.D. personifies how PBA’s interactive learning, coupled with accomplished faculty, has shaped her educational career. She believes that her personal and scholastic achievements would not have been possible without the help of Assistant Professor of Pharmacy Practice Christine Yocum.
“PBA offers a unique learning environment for its pharmacy students through the many opportunities built into the curriculum,” Brahim said. “Starting with our first year, we apply classroom knowledge in settings such as community and hospital pharmacies, and outpatient clinics such as the health center.”
 |

| Dr. Christine Yocum and Misti Curcio '14 |
Dr. Yocum completed her pharmacy residency at PBA and joined the School of Pharmacy faculty in 2011. “I was blessed to find a residency program that allowed me to hone my clinical skills as a pharmacist and budding researcher, as well as serve the students as a guest lecturer and preceptor in a setting where my spiritual gifts may flourish,” she said.
“Because I recently graduated from PBA’s doctorate program and, as a resident, closely interacted with fourth-year students, I have a clear understanding of the life-changing transitions they make from the classroom, to the clinical setting, to the real world,” Dr. Yocum said. “Clinical experiences change the way students think. They are taught to stop and treat the person, not the disease.”
In addition to pharmacy students gaining direct care proficiencies at sites such as JFK Medical Center and the West Palm Beach VA Medical Center, one of the most effective and inspiring learning experiences is working at the nearby Community Health Center’s free clinic.
The Community Health Center provides non-emergency medical care to those who do not have access to health care services. The center’s free clinic on Tuesday and Thursday nights offers students the chance to broaden their skills while giving back to the community.
“The clinic was the ideal setting for students to help me conduct my diabetes research for my residency, in which we evaluated the effectiveness of delivering patient education via a video for patients who don’t speak English,” Dr. Yocum said.
“A secondary finding of the research showed the patients’ diabetes was not being controlled properly,” she said. “It is a blessing to be able to provide life-saving intervention and education for these patients.”
