HOME ABOUT NABT SITE MAP JOIN NOW ... PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT Biology Teaching Preparation Standards for Middle and Secondary Teachers (formerly Biology Teaching Standards) A biology teacher’s education program should be in alignment with the National Science Education Standards NSES ; National Academy of Sciences, 1996) and Benchmarks for Science Literacy (American Association for the Advancement of Science, 1993). The program should prepare pre-service teachers of secondary biology or life science courses in the areas of content, pedagogy and assessment. There has been, and continues to be, enormous growth and change in biological knowledge. Therefore, programs for pre-service teachers must include a professional development component that prepares teachers of the life sciences to remain current by further college instruction, reading professional journals, and attending conferences and workshops. Content Preparation Teachers of biology and life sciences must have a broad preparation science inquiry processes and in the content areas of cellular and molecular biology (cytology, cell physiology, macromolecules, bioenergetics and genetics), organismal biology (homeostatic mechanisms, developmental biology and behavior), and ecological and evolutionary biology (genetic variation, natural selection, speciation, extinction, systematics, interrelationships, population factors, ecosystems, energy flow, nutrient cycles, sociobiology, and environmental biology). Teachers should also know and understand the ethical implications of science and technology, basic technology tools, the historical development of biology, and how to incorporate and maximize field experiences.

Philosophy and Goals Design of the Curriculum Components of the Curriculum Components of Each Module Teaching Strategies Ordering and Additional Information Insights in Biology Home Insights in Biology: An Introductory High School Biology Curriculum Teaching Strategies The Classroom as a Community Cooperative Learning Groups Concept-Mapping Models ... Classroom Safety Rules The Classroom as a Community Significant influences on learning include the use of a variety of classroom instruction techniques and the climate within a classroom. Positive teacher-student and student-student interactions, instructional and social, contribute to feelings of self esteem and foster a sense of belonging in the class and the school (Wang, 1993). The kinds of camaraderie that exist in a successful sports team-the enthusiasm and drive to succeed-should be the goal of the classroom teacher as well. Developing the Classroom Community Since the format and methodologies of this curriculum may be unfamiliar to students-in that "correct" answers are derived from experiences, not given in a teacher's book-students will be needing support and encouragement. As students begin to know and trust each other and as cooperative groups form and succeed, you will no longer need to be the sole source of recognition and appreciation of student talents. In stressing the "we" nature of learning, the members of your classroom will become a community of curious and thoughtful investigators.

menuSelected=-1; prefix="../"; Feb 2002 Issue "The lecturers are very friendly and extremely patient. To be able to interact personally with personnel from higher institutes of learning is one of the reasons why I signed up for the workshop. I was not disappointed." - Mdm Tham Wai Fong of Pioneer Secondary School Teaching Teachers Biology Mr Lee Siak Cheong, a teacher at Yishun Town Secondary, took a chance when he showed up at NUS for a Life Sciences workshop. He had earlier been told that all the places for the workshops were filled. The one- and two-day workshops (held for the first time in NUS and organized by the Department of Biochemistry, Faculty of Medicine and the Office of Life Sciences) aimed to help upper primary and lower secondary school teachers with a better understanding of biology. The workshops also enabled Life Sciences educators from primary, secondary and tertiary institutions to interact. The teachers were from both neighborhood and top schools, having signed up themselves or been nominated by their schools. Acceptance was on a first-come-first-served basis, and 300 had to be rejected when the quota of 240 participants was reached. Professor Sit Kim Ping of the Biochemistry Department said the initiative was in support of the Ministry of Education's (MOE) new Life Sciences curriculum in schools as well as an effort to reach out to primary and secondary school students through their teachers.

Teaching Activities Teaching Activities The Biozentrum educates scientists at the bachelor, master, doctoral and postdoctoral level. The particular advantage of the education at the Biozentrum is its direct integration into research. All lecturers are active, grant-holding scientists. The ratio of lecturers to students is also ideal and ensures optimal support for every student. Bachelor in Biology In 2003 the current biology curriculum introduced in 2000 was adjusted to the Bachelor/Master system according to the Bologna convention. The Bachelor curriculum takes three years to complete and is taught by lecturers of the Biozentrum and the Department of Integrative Biology. During the first two years of basic studies, the students receive the essential grounding in mathematics/statistics, physics, and chemistry, as well as introductory courses in biology. In addition, they are trained in ethics and attend optional courses in biology and non-biological subjects. After having completed the basic studies, the students must choose either molecular biology or organismic biology to be the main focus of their further studies, because the content of the third year, which consists of block courses lasting several weeks each, determines the Major of the Biology Bachelor. The block courses provide theoretical information which the students then turn into practice in the laboratory or in the field. Master in Molecular Biology Students with a Bachelor in Biology, Major Molecular Biology, are admitted to the fast track Master program that takes 1 year. The students work on their Master thesis and take additional courses in the field of molecular biology. The Master thesis will replace the current Diploma thesis as of 2004 and is the students’ real introduction to research. At the Biozentrum, the students can specialize in Biochemistry, Bioinformatics, Biophysics, Cell Biology, Developmental Biology, Genetics, Immunology, Infection Biology, Microbiology, Neurobiology, Pharmacology, and Structural Biology. A complete list of the diploma theses completed during the report period can be found on pp 7-9.

They will capture spiders, observe and care for them, and use them to answer their own questions about spider behavior. Modeling the process of a research scientist, each team of students will design and conduct their own experiment. Simultaneously, the class will collaborate on joint projects investigating feeding rates of spiders and their importance in controlling the numbers of insects (by conducting a field study on or near school grounds). Designed for both middle and high school students The Behavior of Ants (by David Shindelman) Middle school students will use the steps of the Scientific Method to independently develop and test their own ideas through experimentation with ants. Students will take part in a four-part study of the behavior of ants.

Biology Teaching Laboratories   For many years I have been involved in the design and implementation of inquiry-based laboratory activities.  Traditional laboratory activities tend to emphasize the development of students’ ability to observe and describe biological phenomena.  Inquiry-based exercises allow students to participate in a wider range of scientific processes from hypothesis formation, through designing and conducting experiments, to forming and discussing the implications of their conclusions.  These projects have led to interdisciplinary collaborations with people from NMSU’s departments of mathematics and English.  More recently, I have become interested in helping students learn to act on the implications of their research.  This has led to the development of service-learning activities and the synthesis of inquiry-based experiments with service-learning projects.

Science Teaching Abraham Arcavi, Head Department is composed of groups working in mathematics, physics, chemistry, life sciences, computer science, earth and environmental sciences, and science and technology for all (junior and senior high school). Extensive research and development is carried out in all these areas, with the aim of a) producing high-quality and up-to-date learning, teaching and assessment materials for use throughout the Israeli educational system, and b) providing ongoing professional development of teachers. The learning and teaching materials include textbooks, teacher guides, enrichment materials, innovative uses of modern technologies and development and maintenance of websites for non-frontal teaching. The work is based upon an underlying philosophy that considers curriculum development and implementation, professional development of teachers, research and evaluation as part of an integrated and continuous long-term activity. Our belief in the central role of teachers in improving education has led us to focus our efforts also on National Teacher Centers, which serve as sources of support, information and materials for teachers throughout the country. The Centers, led by our scientists, also prepare and support teachers in leadership roles in their schools and/or districts. In 2003, we expanded our work with teachers to include pre-service education. We established a program for Teacher Licensing (Te’udat Hora’a) in cooperation with the Feinberg Graduate School and with endorsement of the Ministry of Education. The target population of this program is graduate students and post-doctoral fellows from all the departments at the Weizmann Institute. The main objective of the program is to encourage candidates with a very strong scientific background to become teachers and teacher leaders in junior high and high schools in Israel, as well as in teacher education colleges.

You should realize, however, that learning about the process of science is as important as learning the knowledge uncovered by the process. So, we strive to have you learn biological principles in the context of the historical development of "science as a way of knowing." In both the classroom and the laboratory, you will learn how observation and description have led to questions, hypotheses and predictions; how these hypotheses were tested; how the results of the tests were interpreted; and how the current knowledge base of biological science was and is being constructed and modified. You will actively engage in the process, itself, in the laboratory. The Biology Faculty and Staff of the General College have designed the course to provide you not only with the processes, facts, and theoretical foundations of modern biology but also with a variety of information and skills that you can apply to your daily lives. For instance, knowledge about how plants reproduce can help you with your gardening problems. Knowledge of Mendelian genetics helps you to work out questions about what your children might be like. Knowledge about the causes of environmental impacts may help you decide what lifestyles are right for you. And, wouldn't it be useful if you could correctly read and interpret the graphs that appear daily in our newspapers and magazines?
