Course at a Glance: Mentoring High School Students |
Spring 2006
|
|
Each of you will adopt a student from a biotechnology class at Chesterfield Technical Center. I will visit the class some time in February to explain the nature of our interaction, and all of us will meet with the class late February (the site of the initial meeting -- here or there -- remains to be established). At that meeting, you'll help your student work through an online excursion through molecular biology, using BioBIKE.
After that you and your adoptee will meet online through BioBIKE (which permits two people to log into the same space and thereby see the same screen), to work through some Molecular Mysteries. You'll no doubt be able to figure them out more easily than the student, but the idea is to encourage the student to do as much of the solving as possible, with you acting as cheer leader. |
