Science for Non-Scientists
This project shared a wealth of teaching materials from a general education course designed to introduce non-science majors to scientific ways of thinking; the course developed remarkably strong critical thinking skills. SERC provided a platform to post these resources for wider use.
Project Focus: Disciplinary Skills and Habits of Mind, Pedagogy and Teaching Approaches
SERC Role: Product Dissemination, Website Hosting and Development
Microbial Life
This project aimed to provide a contemporary resource of expert information about the ecology, diversity and evolution of micro-organisms as well as common research techniques used in the field for students, K-12 teachers, university faculty, as well as for the general public. It was a collaborative project of the Marine Biology Laboratory, Woods Hole, MA, and Montana State University, Bozeman, MT.
Project Focus: Connecting STEM Research to Education, Pedagogy and Teaching Approaches
