glossary map contact The heart of this module is the set of five activities that follow. These activities are the vehicles that we hope will carry important concepts related to human genetic variation to your students. To review the concepts in detail, refer to Figure 7 in Implementing the Module As you scan the activities, you will find that each contains several major features. At a Glance gives you a convenient overview of the activity. The Focus provides a one-to-two-sentence summary of what students do. Major Concepts states the central idea(s) the activity is designed to convey. Objectives lists three to five specific understandings or abilities students should have after completing the activity. Prerequisite Knowledge alerts you to the understandings and skills students should have before beginning the activity. The Basic Science-Health Connection describes how the activity illustrates the relationship between basic science and personal and public health. The mission of the NIH is to “uncover new knowledge that will lead to better health for everyone.” This mission statement recognizes that basic science and personal and public health are not separate issues; they are not even two sides of one issue (Figure 12). Rather, they are inextricably linked and form a powerful whole: Research into the basic processes of life leads inevitably to strategies for improving health, and questions about health trigger research into basic processes.

Julius van der Werf's teaching activities. Undergraduate courses coordinated: GEST325. Quantitative genetics. This is a third year undergraduate core course which provides an introduction to Quantitative Genetics. It gives students some feel for the principles of genetic variation, heritability, selection and crossbreeding. Elementary skills are developed for estimating the breeding value of animals for commercially important traits, predicting rates of genetic improvement, and designing animal breeding programs to help maximise gains. Application in animal breeding industries is discussed. 19 lectures plus 20 hours of practicals. GENE422. Animal Genetics and Breeding. In addition, an introduction is given to functional aspects of molecular genetics which are relevant to animal breeding. 26 lectures plus 13 three-hour practicals. Postgraduate courses coordinated: GENE 522. Genetic evaluation and design. This is a postgraduate course which deepens the coverage of procedures to evaluate animals (selection index and best linear unbiassed prediction), and broadens the coverage of technical aspects of application in the animal breeding industries. An introduction is given to functional aspects of molecular genetics which are relevant to animal breeding. 26 lectures plus 13 three-hour practicals plus 13 one hr tutorials

Chapter Controversial Issues in Gene Research Background Classroom Applications Internet Resources Appendices Classroom Applications One of the fastest-growing areas of medical research is that of genetic testing and gene therapy. This chapter introduces students to this area of DNA research and helps them explore the related ethical issues. Preliminary Lesson Planning Materials: Prepare enough copies of the student handouts in Appendix B Appendix C , and Appendix E for each student in the class. For the Cool Down Activity, bring enough pens and overhead transparencies (or sheets of paper large enough to be displayed on the blackboard) for each group in the class. Student Grouping: Decide on procedures for grouping students for each activity (see suggestions below). Groups should have no more than six participants. Vocabulary: Purpose: To preview key issues in genetic research and therapy To encourage students to examine what they believe about these issues To activate vocabulary related to the topic Procedures: Give each student a copy of Handout 1 ( Appendix B ). Ask them to read the statements in Column 1 and circle YES, NO, or MAYBE.

Functional and Evolutionary Genomics (ECOL/BIOC/MCB 453/553, Fall) This course surveys the basic findings and approaches in the developing field of genomics, covering conceptual aspects as well as methodology and technical advances that are central to obtaining and exploring genome sequences. A consideration of how the evolutionary process shapes genomes will be a continuing theme in the course. This course is part of a graduate training program in Evolutionary and Functional Genomics, funded by the National Science Foundation. The Biology of Symbiosis (ECOL 596C, Spring) This seminar will survey new findings on intimate associations of microbes with marine and terrestrial animals, plants, and other microbes. Evolutionary, genetic, genomic, physiological and ecological aspects will be included. Course aims are (1) to synthesize recent data from different fields and (2) to identify gaps in existing knowledge. High School Teachers Biotechnology, Evolution and Ecology Summer Course

Editors: Linda R. Kauffman, Janet E. Stocks, Carnegie Mellon University Prev: Connecting Civic Responsibility to the Integration of Research and Education: the High School Student Research Program Aboard the Vessel R/V Vantuna Next: An Integrating Culture of Undergraduate Research CUR Home Printable Version Research Activities in the Education of Teachers Dean Zollman, University Distinguished Professor and Head Department of Physics Kansas State University Manhattan, KS 66506 Our goal for science, engineering and science education students at Kansas State University has always been that they understand the intellectual content of their discipline and the process by which that discipline develops new knowledge. While instructional laboratories help students understand the processes of science and engineering, the understanding that research is an ongoing, complex endeavor occurs only when the student is part of that research effort. KSU encourages all students to become actively involved in research and to become an active part of student-centered research programs. In most science and engineering departments, nearly 90% of the approximately 3300 undergraduates participate in research, as do all graduate students. In an average year 25-30 undergraduates will co-author research papers with their faculty mentors. Providing an opportunity to participate in research is especially critical for students who will become science teachers and those working teachers who are enrolled in graduate programs. To be able to teach their students how scientific knowledge develops, these students and science teachers must understand the research enterprise. Although our goals for future and present teachers are similar to those for our science and engineering students, the research experiences that are a natural part of the science and engineering curricula do not automatically become available to teachers.

SECOND REGULAR SESSION HOUSE BILL NO. 92ND GENERAL ASSEMBLY INTRODUCED BY REPRESENTATIVE S COOPER (155) (Sponsor), REINHART, DAVIS (19), NIEVES, PHILLIPS, EMERY AND HUNTER (Co-sponsors). Pre-filed December 19, 2003, and copies ordered printed. STEPHEN S. DAVIS, Chief Clerk AN ACT To amend chapter 170, RSMo, by adding thereto one new section relating to standard science instruction. Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the state of Missouri, as follows: Section A. Chapter 170, RSMo, is amended by adding thereto one new section, to be known as section 170.018, to read as follows: 170.018. 1. This section shall be known as, and may be cited as, the "Missouri Standard Science Act." 2. As used in this section, the following terms mean: (1) "Analogous naturalistic process", a verifiable process which is either a present-day naturally occurring process similar to a past naturalistic process or the human-directed duplication of a process similar to a past naturalistic process. The verifiable process uses similar natural materials, mechanisms, and conditions as the past naturalistic process and produces an equivalent end result; (2) "Biological evolution", a theory of the origin of life and its ascent by naturalistic means. The first simple life was developed from basic elements and simple molecules through the mechanisms of random combinations, naturally occurring molecular structures, other naturalistic means, and millions of years. From the first simple life, all subsequent species developed through the mechanisms of random variation, mutation, natural selection, adaptation, segregation, other naturalistic means, and millions of years. The theory is illustrated by the evolutionary phylogenic tree. Theory philosophically demands only naturalistic causes and denies the operation of any intelligence, supernatural event, God or theistic figure in the initial or subsequent development of life;
