Program in Course Redesign University of Massachusetts Amherst The Traditional Course Introductory Biology, taught in the fall semester, is the first course in biological sciences for incoming students from eleven majors at the university. The course serves approximately 700 students each fall, representing about 20% of the freshman class. Teams of two instructors teach each of the two sections of the course. Classes meet three times a week for 50 minutes sessions. Students also participate in labs that meet once a week for three hours. Introductory Biology is designed to provide a foundation for all further study in the life sciences by providing students with both a solid conceptual foundation in biology and an enthusiasm for the subject matter to motivate advanced study in the field. Introductory Biology has been in the process of revision for some time. A previous redesign focused on the lab sessions, which have been changed to include strong data collection and analysis components. A more recent (fall,1999) redesign of one lecture section moved from a traditional lecture format to an active learning environment. The redesign incorporated ClassTalk, a commercially-available, interactive program that compiles and displays student responses to problem-solving activities. Using ClassTalk, class time is divided into 10-15 minute lecture segments followed by sessions in which students work in small groups applying concepts to solve problems posed by the instructor. Students discuss the questions to facilitate initial problem solving and then share the rationale for their responses with the class once the data has been compiled and displayed. The instructor moderates the discussions and draws out key issues to reinforce specific ideas or reveal misconceptions. This approach has successfully created an active learning environment, bringing many positive aspects of small group work to the large lecture hall setting. However, other problems remain to be solved.

On this page Why Dalhousie Why Dal Biology Why Dal Marine Biology Some Options ... Links to more info Prospective Graduate Students please see the Graduate Studies page Why do an undergraduate degree at Dalhousie? There are big advantages to studying at Canada's "smallest big university". Dalhousie is the smallest of the comprehensive universities in Canada, which are those offering a full range of professional programmes such as law, medicine, engineering, in addition to core undergraduate programmes and graduate research. As such, it allows many of the advantages of smaller universities and the scope and opportunities of large universities. Dalhousie is a good place to be exposed to a wide range of activities in Biology and to help you decide what you want to pursue (even if another discipline). If you have a profession already in mind, Dalhousie provides opportunities to take classes that are highly relevant, and from professors with research programmes in those areas. We can accommodate a diversity of interests, for example, you could take classes in drama or music while you study biology. You can even take classes at other degree granting institutions in Halifax (Nova Scotia College of Art and Design, St. Mary's University, Mount Saint Vincent University). The Nova Scotia Agricultural College in Truro (one hour away from Dalhousie) is affiliated with Dalhousie, and students sometimes begin at one institution and, as their interests develop, change to the other institution or spend a year at the other institution.

LeagueTLC Innovation Express Exploring Issues, Innovations, and New Developments with Information Technology Professionals Biology Laboratory Online: A Hands-on and Project-Based Course San Diego Miramar College, CA The world of online educational content today closely emulates the text-based, lecture-based, or print-based curriculum of traditional classroom-based instruction. Many online courses have been developed with minor modifications to the legacy lecture format and delivered through a series of technological innovations and resources. A cursory overview illustrates that the greatest advances in online courses have occurred through technological delivery rather than advancing teaching and learning techniques. This noted, how has e-learning impacted the translation of critical content mastery through experimental, hands-on learning experiences associated with scientific lab experiments? At the turn of the millennium, online degree options expanded within the California State System. During this time, San Diego Community College District (SDCCD) recognized the need to create an internet-based science course in order to meet full degree requirements for the newly developed SDCCD Online Program. In the fall of 2001, SDCCD and department faculty approved the concept, curriculum, and development of the first online biology course and lab. As part of this approval, they also included stipulations and the following requirements:

98. Fairfield University - Full Project Plan General biology, a twosemester introductory course, is required of all In the traditional format, General biology is taught in a lecture format using http://www.center.rpi.edu/PewGrant/RD2 Award/FUplan.html

Program in Course Redesign Fairfield University The Traditional Course General Biology, a two-semester introductory course, is required of all students majoring in biology, psychology, neuroscience, biochemistry, and allied health. Approximately 260 students enroll in the course annually, 15% of the typical first-year class. Almost one-tenth of all students major in biology, the second largest major at the university. The university offers four lecture sections of about 35 to 40 students in the fall term and three in the spring term. Each lecture section meets three times a week for 50 minutes. Seven lab sections of about 20 students are offered in the fall and six in the spring. Each lab section meets once a week for three hours. Four different faculty members teach the lecture sections, and five faculty members plus additional professional staff teach the labs. In the traditional format, General Biology is taught in a lecture format using an historic approach, with all faculty using the same syllabus. In-class technology consists of an overhead projector and transparencies. Labs consist of a series of 12 modules, each of which is designed to be completed in the three-hour lab session. Students do "cookbook" type experiments in which they memorize information rather than apply specific scientific methodology to answer biological questions. Neither lectures nor labs use computer-based instructional materials or online databases, despite the integral use of computers in biological research today.

This increased interest has created a need for more people trained on how to run biology robots. To meet this need the Ellington Lab is developing a biorobotics university course. The primary information resource for the planned course will be a web site. This web site will serve students with course information and additionally serve the world as a central location for all biorobotic data. Currently a centralized biorobotic web site does not exist.
