Molecular Biology for Teachers

这项提议是对密苏里州的60名高中教师进行分子生物学培训。该计划旨在(1)通过为期一个月的暑期计划提供分子生物学的理论和实践背景，(2)开发适合纳入中学课程的分子生物学教学模块，以及(3)建立和维持理科教师和大学教职员工之间的分子生物学交流网络。完成课程后，教师将(1)对分子生物学原理有基本的了解，(2)获得相关实验室程序的经验，(3)开发分子生物学的教学模块，并将其纳入高中课堂并进行评估。该项目是西南密苏里州立大学生物医学科学系和斯普林菲尔德R-12学区的合作成果。

This proposal is to train 60 high school teachers from the state of Missouri in molecular biology. The program aims to (1) provide a theoretical and practical background in molecular biology through month-long summer programs, (2) develop a teaching module in molecular biology suitable for incorporation into the secondary school curriculum, and (3) to establish and maintain a molecular biology communications network among science teaches and university faculty. Upon completion of the program, the teachers will have (1) acquired a basic understanding of the principles of molecular biology, (2) gained experience in associated laboratory procedures, (3) developed a teaching module in molecular biology which will be incorporated into and evaluated within the high school classroom. The program is a cooperative effort between the Biomedical Sciences Department of Southwest Missouri State University and the Springfield R-12 school district.
