罗切斯特大学的科学教育研究生体验（GESE）课程使有兴趣追求学术生涯的生物医学科学研究生熟悉科学教育的一些理论，原则和概念的基本理解。这一学期的选修课程为研究生提供实践教学和沟通技巧，以帮助他们更好地将科学内容与自己的教学能力联系起来，并增加他们对自己的教学能力的信心。每周2小时的课程包括介绍认知层次，学习风格和多元智能;建模和指导科学教育教学法的一些实际方面;课程规划技能;介绍教学方法，如案例研究和基于问题的学习;和使用基于计算机的教学技术。希望有关教学的知识和技能的早期发展将鼓励研究生在整个职业生涯中继续作为教育工作者的成长。本文总结了GESE课程，并提出了证据证明本课程的有效性，为研究生提供有关教学和学习的信息，他们将在整个职业生涯中使用。
The University of Rochester's Graduate Experience in Science Education (GESE) course familiarizes biomedical science graduate students interested in pursuing academic career tracks with a fundamental understanding of some of the theory, principles, and concepts of science education. This one-semester elective course provides graduate students with practical teaching and communication skills to help them better relate science content to, and increase their confidence in, their own teaching abilities. The 2-h weekly sessions include an introduction to cognitive hierarchies, learning styles, and multiple intelligences; modeling and coaching some practical aspects of science education pedagogy; lesson-planning skills; an introduction to instructional methods such as case studies and problem-based learning; and use of computer-based instructional technologies. It is hoped that the early development of knowledge and skills about teaching and learning will encourage graduate students to continue their growth as educators throughout their careers. This article summarizes the GESE course and presents evidence on the effectiveness of this course in providing graduate students with information about teaching and learning that they will use throughout their careers.
