 sco
DTSTAMP:20130502T092702
DESCRIPTION:Workshop participants will utilize cutting-edge science tools i
 n hands-on laboratories and bioinformatics investigations\, and deepen awar
 eness of rewarding careers for their students. Participants will update the
 ir pedagogy while networking with biotech leaders and colleagues. A continu
 um of faculty from secondary education\, 2-year colleges\, and universities
  are invited to apply. The National Science Foundation\, Division of Underg
 raduate Education’s Advanced Technological Education (NSF-ATE) program is
  funding all instruction\, workshop materials\, meals/refreshments\, and pr
 oviding stipends of $300. Further support for travel or other related expen
 ses is not available.
\n
\nThe Genomic Approaches in BioSciences workshops 
 will focus on four key technologies - PCR\, DNA Sequencing\, RNA interferen
 ce\, and Bioinformatics - that will prepare students for specialized life s
 cience elective courses\, independent research projects\, and biotechnology
  careers.
\n
\nGenomic Approaches in BioSciences will integrate theoretical
 \, laboratory\, and computer technology with practical advice on classroom 
 management and career exploration. Time will be included for independent wo
 rk\, lesson planning\, and preparation for classroom projects. Most of the 
 workshops are led by DNALC staff members and college faculty who collaborat
 ed in the development of the course modules.
\n
\nThese workshops result fr
 om a collaboration between DNALC and 12 community colleges in the Bio-Link 
 network.
