BIO 202 - Laboratory/Research Techniques for K-12 Biology Teachers
Summer
This course is designed to help K through 12 school teachers
develop either cell/molecular or ecology/evolution research methods
classes and inquiry-driven laboratory experiences for their students.
The course will introduce teachers to model systems that can be applied
to research and inquiry-based laboratories. Model organisms, subject
matter, and targeted school level may change with separate offerings of
this course. Course content will include the basic biology of the
organisms and an introduction to the types of research for which the
organisms are currently being used. Techniques that can be used for
inquiry-driven investigations will be introduced. In the second half of
the course, class paticipants will work in groups to design new
experiments or avenues of investigation.
Prerequisites & Notes
The course may be repeated for credit when the model systems covered change.
May not be taken on a Pass/Fail basis. (Formerly Laboratory/Research Techniques
for High School Biology Teachers.)
Credits: 3 s.h.
