Measuring the Effectiveness of Active Learning Methods in Cell Biology
Cohort: 2016
Fellow: Arturo De Lozanne
Despite ample evidence that implementing active learning methods in the classroom leads to better outcomes, most courses in Biology continue the use of traditional lecturing. Anecdotal conversations with many of my colleagues who teach upper division biology courses indicate a widespread perception that the traditional lecture is the most effective way to transmit information to students.
