New Undergraduate Course Development: Teaching Bioinformatics through Collaboration and Inquiry

跨学科（99）本项目正在改编来自多个来源的学习资源，包括赖特州立大学现有的生物信息学项目（EIA-0122582），以及国家生物技术信息中心和人类基因组项目开展的工作，供计算机科学家和生物学家正在开发的核心高级生物信息学课程使用。适合生物学和计算机科学学生的四个教学模块构成了课程的基础。这些包括一套课程计划，包括课堂作业，计算机实验室和生物实验室练习，以及一套动手小组项目。以探究为基础的教学和合作小组项目计划，以鼓励来自不同学术背景的学生之间的互动。

Interdisciplinary (99) This project is adapting learning resources from a number of sources, including an existing program in bioinformatics at Wright State University (EIA-0122582), and work undertaken at the National Center for Biotechnology Information and the Human Genome Project, for use in a core upper-division bioinformatics course under development by a computer scientist and biologist. Four teaching and learning modules suitable for both biology and computer science students form the basis of the course. These include a set of lesson plans incorporating in-class assignments, computer lab and biology lab exercises, and a set of hands-on group projects. Inquiry based teaching and learning and cooperative group projects are planned for encouraging interaction between students from different academic backgrounds.
