Yale-New Haven Teachers Institute Home Using Drosophila to Teach Genetics by Christin E. Arnini Contents of Curriculum Unit 96.05.01: Narrative Appendix Notes IV Bibliography ... To Guide Entry The objectives of this unit are to take basic concepts of genetics and apply them to an organism, easily raised and observed in the classroom. It has been a challenge in the teaching of High School Biology, to take the abstract ideas of genes, chromosomes, heredity, and make them visable and tangible for the students. Drosophila melanogaster offers a way for teachers to help students make connections between populations, the organism, the cell, the chromosome, the gene, and the DNA. As a part of a unit on genetics, this unit on Drosophila can give students the opportunity to get to know an organism well, observing closely its development and physical characteristics, and then questioning how it is that the fly came to be this way. Unit Format: I. Discussion of Drosophila 1. Review of genetics concepts 2. Thomas Hunt Morgan and the historical frame 3. Drosophila chromosomes, characteristics, and developmental stages

I am convinced it is a crucial component currently missing from contemporary curricula. Institutional Education and Reform For centuries schools have emphasized development of intellectual knowledge and mastery of technical skills. However, these, as the only elements of the educational process, are fragmentary, alienating, and an incomplete inventory of the human experience on earth. In fact, this emphasis on intellectual knowledge and technical mastery is an utilitarian educational approach geared predominantly toward economic interests, in which accumulation of information, ideas, technology and material prosperity are held to be more relevant than human life itself. In short, in this paradigm, the economic function of education is paramount. Until this approach is changed, the dim possibility of teaching peace receeds even more into the fog.

CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT IN PHYSICS EDUCATION P. L. Lijnse Centre for Science and Mathematics Education, Utrecht University, The Netherlands 1. INTRODUCTION In the preface of his famous book "The Process of Education" (1960), the psychologist Bruner wrote about "a conviction that we were at the beginning of a period of new progress in, and concern for creating curricula and ways of teaching science" . He argued that a general appraisal of this progress and concern was in order, so as to better guide developments in the future. At the time, this same optimism spread to other countries, leading to the well known curriculum wave of the sixties and seventies which flooded the world of science education. Now, 35 years later, it may be appropriate to look back for a while and ask ourselves what progress this curriculum development and related research has brought us. To guide this reflection, it may be instructive to look somewhat further into what were considered to be the main problems and perspectives in 1960. Let me therefore briefly summarize some of Bruner's main conclusions. Regarding 'the importance of structure' the following was said: ".. the curriculum of a subject should be determined by the most fundamental understanding that can be achieved of the underlying principles that give structure to that subject. Teaching specific topics or skills without making clear their context in the broader fundamental structure of a field of knowledge is uneconomical in several deep senses. In the first place, such teaching makes it exceedingly difficult for the student to generalize from what he has learned to what he will encounter later. In the second place, learning that has fallen short of a grasp of general principles has little reward in terms of intellectual excitement. (...) Third, knowledge one has acquired without sufficient structure to tie it together is knowledge that is likely to be forgotten."

Haas, 617-496-1884 Research Shows New Teachers Lack Curriculum for State Standards Harvard Graduate School of Education Send this page to a friend Subscribe to e-Updates A new study of Massachusetts teachers from researchers at the Harvard Graduate School of Education (HGSE) showed that even in a state with a highly developed system of standards and accountability, new teachers were not provided with the curricula they needed to teach to standards. In their article, “Lost at Sea: New Teachers’ Experiences with Curriculum and Assessment,” which appears in the current issue of Teachers College Record , researchers from HGSE’s Project on the Next Generation of Teachers reported that few of the 50 first- and second-year teachers who participated in the study began teaching with a clear, detailed curriculum in hand and even fewer received curricula that aligned with state standards. Susan Moore Johnson , director of the Project on the Next Generation of Teachers. “The absence of a coherent curriculum has implications for student achievement and teacher retention. Students may learn less than they otherwise might while many new teachers who could have succeeded with more support may leave teaching prematurely because of the overwhelming nature of the work and the pain of failing in the classroom.”

DROZDOWSKI Career advice for administrative staff members in fund raising and development Previous articles Dear Foundation Program Officer: Greetings from the New Hampshire hinterlands. Several years ago we met to discuss my former employer's proposal to your foundation. Despite the time that's passed, I remember our conversation clearly. How could I forget? If you recall, my university sought money to develop a particular aspect of its curriculum. As the institution's corporate and foundation-relations officer, I was in town to "pitch" our idea. You were a receptive audience at least initially. As I entered your well-appointed office and scrunched into your overstuffed leather chair, I glanced toward your faux fireplace and thought, "What a cozy space." I admit I was a bit nervous, as I normally am when confronting major foundation officials. I'm sure you realize that you wield all the power in such relationships; we all know it's much easier to give money away than it is to raise it. Anyway, I began discussing my university's plans, how novel our approach was, how foundation dollars would provide the critical difference and impetus to revitalize our curriculum. My thoughts flowed freely. I was on a roll.

Read our survey highlights about teacher training in technology. Read "Moving Teachers Along a Competency Continuum." Read "State Policies on Teacher Training." September 23, 1999 Preparing Teachers For the Digital Age By Andrew Trotter A school can have the best software ever made and access to the Web on every computer. But it won't see much difference in student learning, experts say, unless its teachers know how to use the digital content in their classrooms. "I could put the same software into two classrooms, and in one classroom, it's used horribly, and in the other classroom, it's fantastic. It's all got to do with the teacher," says Gregg Martin, the technology director at Addison Central Supervisory Union, a school district in Vermont's Champlain Valley. A stack of government and academic reports over the past decade backs up Martin's view, quieting an old debate among educators and technology seers about whether computers can replace teachers or even compensate for poor teaching. "As schools continue to acquire more and better hardware and software, the benefit to students increasingly will depend on the skill with which some 3 million teachers are able to use these new tools," a presidential advisory panel on education technology concluded in 1997 after reviewing a wide array of research.

Read about library media specialists' role in technology, "The 'Underused' Resource." See the accompanying data table, "Involving Teachers," reflecting by state the amount and kinds of computer instruction teachers receive. Money spent on school technology could go to waste if teachers don't know how to use it and integrate it into the curriculum. But, more often than not, adequate training is hard to come by. Over the past two years, Duncan Hollinger has gone from having no computers in his classroom to having four. He's also gained Internet access and acquired a printer. But he's still teaching pretty much the same way he always has. "If you have 30 students and four stations, all of a sudden you have to do a lot of redesigning of how to present the material," says Hollinger, a music teacher at LaSalle Middle School in Niagara Falls, N.Y. "You have to change your style of teaching to accommodate or individualize." Percentage of teachers in all public schools regularly using advanced telecommunications for teaching, professional development, and curriculum development. So far, Hollinger says, no one has showed him how. Although the district taught him how to use various computer programsand even provided him a laptop to practice withlittle of that training addressed ways of weaving technology into daily instruction. And he doesn't have the planning time to revamp his lesson plans.

Faculty Development Teach the Teacher Introduction The Institute for Medical Education has created an exciting new faculty development program to train faculty to teach the Resident Teaching Development Curriculum. Residents are often the primary teachers of interns and medical students in academic medical centers but are rarely given any formal preparation for teaching. Our goal is to bring a multispecialty resident teaching skills curriculum to all residents at The Mount Sinai Hospital (MSH) and its approximately 13 affiliate hospitals. The task is challenging given the organizational complexity of implementing the curriculum on such a large scale. Therefore, we designed the program Teach the Teacher to train faculty from MSH and our affiliates to teach the existing resident teaching skills curriculum in their own institutions. Objectives of the Program To create a faculty development program that enables faculty to implement, effectively teach, and sustain a resident teaching skills curriculum for their own house staff. To recruit two to three interested faculty in each department.
