A Unified and Instrumentation Oriented Approach To Undergraduate Training In Physiological Ecology

小行星9451145 该项目支持在生命科学中以实验室为基础的生理生态学课程。主要目标强调，包括一个统一的有机体适应的多样性，重点是能源预算和资源获取;基因，酶，蛋白质，生物体，人口和环境之间的联系;提供假设驱动的实验室练习，实验设计和分析，以及介绍当代仪器。该项目扩大了课程的实验室部分，正在通过实验室手册传播该方案的成果，提供职前和在职教师培训讲习班，本科生研究和地方科学会议。

9451145 Edmunds This project supports an upper division laboratory-based physiological ecology course in the life sciences. Major goals are emphasized, including a unifying of the diversity of organismic adaptations with focus on energy budgets and resource acquisition; the linking between genes, enzymes, proteins, organisms, populations and the environment; providing hypothesis driven laboratory exercises, experimental design and analysis, as well as an introduction to contemporary instrumentation. The project has expanded the laboratory component of the course, is disseminating the results of the program through a laboratory manual, provides pre-service and in-service teacher training workshops, undergraduate research, and local scientific conferences.
