This proposal seeks funding for a week-long, faculty workshop, LABSHOP, for 36 participants, to develop laboratory exercises suitable for introductory, multiple-section biology courses that promote an active student involvement via a problem- solving or SAAW0K-type approach. The problem-solving instructional approach, best employed in the laboratory classroom, can provide a more self-directed, investigative, learning environment that can help solve the science education problem. LABSHOP will bring together an interdisciplinary group of participants to work in teams on selected topics. The final products of LABSHOP will be a variety of student-ready, laboratory exercises that employ a problem/solving/investigative instructional approach. To encourage a continuing dialogue among LABSH0P participants, to explore new approaches and teaching techniques, to encourage communication among biologists concerned with the quality of introductory laboratory instruction, to disseminate the LABSHOP products, and to promote innovation among an even larger, interdisciplinary group of biologists, a free, computer bulletin board, BIOLAB, will be established by this project.

该提案寻求资助为期一周的教师研讨会LABSHOP，有36名参与者，以开发适合介绍性，多部分生物学课程的实验室练习，通过解决问题或saaw0k型方法促进学生积极参与。解决问题的教学方法，最好在实验室教室中使用，可以提供一个更自主的，调查性的学习环境，可以帮助解决科学教育问题。LABSHOP将汇集一个跨学科的参与者小组，就选定的主题进行工作。LABSHOP的最终产品将是各种为学生准备的、采用问题/解决/研究性教学方法的实验室练习。为了鼓励LABSH0P参与者之间的持续对话，探索新的方法和教学技术，鼓励生物学家之间对实验室入门教学质量的交流，传播LABSHOP产品，并促进一个更大的跨学科生物学家群体之间的创新，一个免费的，本项目将建立计算机公告板BIOLAB。
