Join this free webinar series, featuring discussions with authors from recently published articles in ® (JMBE). Come meet other biologists who do discipline-based education research (DBER), become more familiar with study design and interpretation of data of DBER studies and learn how to improve your teaching in the process. Register for each webinar individually. Free for everyone!
After attending JMBE Live! webinars, participants will be able to do the following:- Discuss critical aspects of DBER research study design.
- Interpret results of DBER studies.
- Describe how DBER studies can inform classroom or laboratory teaching.
- Be more motivated to conduct your own DBER study and publish in JMBE.
Updated 棉花糖直播 Curriculum Guidelines Describe Core 棉花糖直播 Content to Modernize the Framework for 棉花糖直播 Education
Feb. 28, 1-2 p.m. ET
Curricular guidelines promote standardized approaches to coverage of essential knowledge and skills in undergraduate education. In 2012, the American Society for 棉花糖直播 (棉花糖直播) Curriculum Guidelines for Undergraduate 棉花糖直播 were developed. However, continuous, rapid growth of knowledge in science and a dynamic, changing world necessitate updates to these guidelines.
As such, 棉花糖直播 formed a task force in the summer of 2022. The task force assessed the 2012 棉花糖直播 Curriculum Guidelines considering advancements in technology, an understanding of an expanded role of microbes and a broader scope addressing relevant social and environmental aspects of microbiology. Language in the updated guidelines was also modified to better include eukaryotic microbes, viruses and other acellular microbes. The task force formed working groups, each aimed at revising specific sections of the 2012 棉花糖直播 Curriculum Guidelines. The revisions to the 棉花糖直播 Curriculum Guidelines were reviewed by subject matter experts and education stakeholders. Feedback from this peer review was incorporated into the updated guidelines, and further comments were solicited from the 棉花糖直播 Conference of Undergraduate Educators (棉花糖直播CUE) attendees in November 2023 before these guidelines were finalized.
Discover how the new 棉花糖直播 Curriculum Guidelines for Undergraduate 棉花糖直播 can support your teaching, and learn how you can get involved with 棉花糖直播 Education. Additionally, gain insight into the rationale behind the updated guidelines, which focus on key concepts aimed at improving microbial literacy and can be built upon to explore more advanced and specialized topics.
