Extractions: Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University There is good news and bad news about the general microbiology (GM) textbook market. First, the good news—there are many excellent choices. The bell-and-whistle coefficient and the quality of the illustrations varies, but failure to achieve success in the GM classroom can't be blamed on a lack of quality textbooks. The book publishers have developed accurate profiles of the market, and the authors write their books for the "typical" student in their mind's eye. Now, the bad news—no text will be an ideal match for your classroom needs. Given the diversity of institutional curricula and student bodies around the world, every teacher will encounter some incompatibility problems in their class regardless of book choice.

Extractions: Case Studies in Science . State University of New York, Buffalo. "Although the case method has been used for years to teach law, business, and medicine, it is not common in science. Yet the use of case studies holds great promise as a pedagogical technique for teaching science, particularly to undergraduates, because it humanizes science and well illustrates scientific methodology and values. It develops students' skills in group learning, speaking, and critical thinking, and since many of the best cases are based on contemporaryand often contentiousscience problems that students encounter in the news (such as human cloning), the use of cases in the classroom makes science relevant."

Extractions: The MAPLE research initiative began in February 2000. Drs. Dehority, Firkins, Lilburn and Yu are located at The Ohio State University, and Drs. Cotta and Whitehead are adjunct associate professors, located at the USDA National Center for Agricultural Utilization Research (USDA-NCAUR), at Peoria, IL. As we begin working together, the diversity of research projects, and opportunities to join MAPLE, are expected to increase. Mark Morrison morrison.234@osu.edu Associate Professor, Departments of Animal Sciences and Microbiology, Columbus. PhD in Animal Sciences (Microbiology), University of Illinois. Postdoctoral Fellow in Bacterial Genetics, University of Michigan. My job duties are to provide leadership for the Department of Animal Sciences in research and education activities dealing with the roles of microorganisms in animal production systems. Although microorganisms are invisible to the naked eye they have a major impact on the production efficiency, economic viability and environmental compatibility of all animal production systems. For these reasons, our Department has a social responsibility to conduct high quality research that provides new, unbiased, and useful information about the microbiology of food animal production systems. My research activities are funded in these areas by competitively-awarded Federal grants, and I will teach microbiology classes in the Departments of Animal Sciences and Microbiology.

Extractions: Biotechnology Classroom Activities These activities were assembled by teachers participating in summer Biotechnology workshops at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls, 1991-1996. They were designed to be used in the participants' classes, but we hope that others will find them useful. The activities are intended to be as classroom-ready as possible, including sources of materials and information about content background, timing, and assessment. We are in the process of field testing the activities, so that they can be modified or corrected if necessary. The activities are listed below. Those with an HTML and/or PDF icon can be downloaded from this page. We are converting the remaining activities as quickly as we can. Fermentation in the Food Industry: An Introduction to Biotechnology HTML PDF This activity will introduce the students to fermentation as well as provide hands on experience with a variety of food fermentation processes. In this exercise, students will study fermentation as a natural biological process and also its implicatio ns in the food and agricultural industries. Group projects incorporate an inquiry based lab, personal journal, and class presentation of research.

Microbiology Faculty I currently coteach two courses the General microbiology modules that illustratebasic concepts of microbiology, to interactive activities presented on http://www.micro.cornell.edu/faculty.SMerkel.html
Extractions: E-Mail: smm3@cornell.edu I currently co-teach two courses: the General Microbiology Lecture ( ) and Teaching Contemporary Biology (BioG410). The General Microbiology course is a lecture-style course with an enrollment of 150 to 200 students each semester. To help the students to better understand the complex, dynamic (and fascinating!) interactions within the realm of microbiology, we have developed a series of computer-based teaching tools, from stand alone, animated modules that illustrate basic concepts of microbiology, to interactive activities presented on our Web site: http://instruct1.cit.cornell.edu/courses/biomi290/ This interest in developing and using computer-based teaching tools has led me into the realm of educational evaluation. Having developed these tools, we are studying ways to make them more effective. This is not an easy question to ask, and we continue to struggle, along with many others, to develop ways to assess the effectiveness of this new technology. Teaching Contemporary Biology (BioG410) is a unique experiential course that allows a small group of undergraduate students to experience, first-hand, the joys (and challenges!) of teaching. We teach microbiology labs to these undergraduate students, then help them develop teaching plans for a high school biology class. They then spend one week over Winter break in a class room in Rochester, NY, teaching their labs to high school biology students. The Cornell undergraduate students end up learning more about science and themselves than the high school students!

Extractions: I am a biology instructor at Penn Valley Community College in Kansas City MO where I teach a number of biology courses including non-majors biology, zoology, genetics and ecology. In addition I have almost 15 years experience as a player, coach and tournament director in volleyball. My teaching philosophy is dependent partly on my experiences as a student, teacher and athlete. I guess I could explain my philosophy as: Doing is better than Listening. As part of the Penn Valley team I was a participant in FIRST I which ran from December 1998 to December 1999. Prior to my participation in FIRST, I had used inquiry-based learning piecemeal in my classes. However, I had no real organization to what I was attempting to do, I just knew that what I had been doing for almost 10 years was not working. After participating in FIRST I, I was more organized in what I did in my classes. Students now spend more time working on projects and discovering information on their own. My interest in the FIRST II project includes increasing my use of inquiry based learning in my classes, seeing how others are using inquiry in their classes, and most importantly looking at developing rubrics and grading inquiry based projects.
