Developing Interdisciplinary Research Skills in Biophysics: a Teamwork-Based Learning Environment

跨学科(99)该项目正在开发一种教授本科生生物物理学的方法，允许学生发展跨学科研究所需的团队合作技能。课程的重点是学习模块，这些模块利用了基于SciPy(Python科学工具)的交互软件。这些模块的作用类似于实验室实验，由学生小组进行学习。每个团队都有来自生物、化学、工程、计算机科学和物理的不同技能的成员。学习模块可以很容易地修改和分析，以培养团队成员之间的创造力和互动。该软件可以在所有主要的计算机平台上运行，并且很容易安装在学生的计算机上。

Interdisciplinary (99) The project is developing an approach to teaching undergraduate biophysics that allows students to develop teamwork skills needed for interdisciplinary research. The coursework focuses on learning modules that utilize interactive software based on SciPy (scientific tools for python). The modules play a role similar to laboratory experiments, and are studies by teams of students. Each team has members with different skills coming from biology, chemistry, engineering, computer science and physics. The learning modules can be modified easily and analyzed in ways that foster creativity and interaction between team members. The software runs on all major computer platforms and is easily installed on the students' computers.
