Del Mar College (DMC), in collaboration with several other institutions including The School of Cinematic Arts at the University of Southern California (USC) is developing a Revising Science Education with Vision (REVISION) program. The program involves DMC students using more contemporary scientific skills and provides them more practice with methods that develop critical and independent thinking. Research components embedded within several laboratories based on the Vision and Change concept-based curriculum recommendations are being used to assist student in developing their troubleshooting and problem-solving activities. Additionally, with the help of the USC Annenberg Innovation Laboratory, the students will be provided with highly engaging curricular materials that use mobile device platforms to encourage participation, learning and faculty/student community building using technologically advanced tools.Intellectual merit: The program is preparing and training students to be critical thinkers and giving them practice using new and emerging skill sets associated with biotechnology, an important sector in the nation's economy. By providing research opportunities for students and professional development opportunities for faculty, the program is serving as the cornerstone of contemporary curricula and faculty development.Broader impacts: This proposal provides educational and training opportunities for students to be more competitive for biotechnology jobs and be better prepared to enter the workforce or post-baccalaureate degree programs. Because DMC is a Minority Serving Institution that serves many first-generation college students, additional and more diverse student populations and faculty are benefiting from the learning opportunities provided by the project.

德尔玛学院(DMC)与包括南加州大学(USC)电影艺术学院在内的其他几家机构合作，正在开发一项修订视觉科学教育(REVISION)计划。该项目让DMC的学生使用更现代的科学技能，并为他们提供更多的方法来发展批判性和独立思考。根据基于愿景和变革概念的课程建议嵌入几个实验室的研究组件正用于帮助学生开展故障排除和解决问题的活动。此外，在南加州大学安纳伯格创新实验室的帮助下，学生将获得极具吸引力的课程材料，这些材料使用移动设备平台来鼓励参与、学习，并使用先进的技术工具建立教师/学生社区。智力优势：该计划正在准备和培训学生成为批判性思考者，并让他们练习使用与生物技术相关的新的和新兴的技能集，生物技术是美国经济中的一个重要部门。通过为学生提供研究机会和为教师提供职业发展机会，该计划正在成为当代课程和教师发展的基石。广泛影响：该提议为学生提供教育和培训机会，使他们在生物技术工作中更具竞争力，并为进入劳动力大军或毕业后学位课程做好更好的准备。由于DMC是一家为许多第一代大学生提供服务的少数群体服务机构，更多和更多样化的学生群体和教职员工正受益于该项目提供的学习机会。
