A graduate like approach is being adapted for upper division molecular biology students and a case oriented approach is being adapted at the introductory level. Upper division students work with the Oregon Health Sciences University (OHSU) to design appropriate research projects to be conducted in the Concordia laboratories. Specific components are included to enable pre-service teachers to adapt course offerings for the courses they will teach in the future. A wide variety of laboratories and courses are affected. The antecedents for the practices being adapted and implemented can be found in: Ahern-Rindell, 1998, J. of College Teaching 28, 159-165 and Keefer, 1998, J. of College Teaching 28, 159-165 as regards the value and implementation guidelines for the incorporation of research into the undergraduate curriculum, and Herreid, 1997, J. of College Science Teaching 27, 92-94 and Smith, 1987 J. of Experimental Education 55, 149-154 as regards the use of case studies in the undergraduate classroom.

对于高年级分子生物学学生，将采用研究生式的方法，而在入门阶段，将采用案例导向的方法。高年级学生与俄勒冈健康科学大学（OHSU）合作，设计在康科迪亚实验室进行的适当研究项目。具体的组成部分包括使职前教师适应课程提供的课程，他们将在未来教的课程。各种各样的实验室和课程受到影响。这些实践被采纳和实施的先例可以在以下文献中找到：Ahern-Rindell， 1998， J. of College Teaching 28, 159-165; Keefer, 1998， J. of College Teaching 28, 159-165; Herreid, 1997， J. of College Science Teaching 27, 92-94; Smith, 1987， J. of Experimental Education 55, 149-154。
