Science Case Network RCN-UBE Project #1062049 Welcome
The Vision • Our project supports an active community of science educators, learners, researchers, developers, and professional organizations interested in furthering the accessibility, development, and use of cases and problem based learning (PBL) in science education.
Goals of SCN • Build a community of people who want to use cases to engage students in learning • Welcome participants from all institutions, all levels of experience, all branches of biology • Help the community communicate and collaborate • On teaching with cases/PBL • On developing cases/PBL • On studying impact of cases/PBL • Share what community is doing
Purpose of this meeting • Bring people together to build this community with focus on SOTL and Designing and adapting cases • Think and plan for the future of the network • What can we do to help you? What do you need from us? • Help writing cases? Cases for a topic or lab? • How to evaluate effectiveness of cases? • How to evaluate student learning?
Meeting Overview • Introduction Focus on the Future • Cases and the Flipped Classroom • SOTL and Cases • New Cases and Adapting Cases • Primarily a working meeting for you!
Future of Cases in Science • New technologies • Facebook Cases • Authentic products blogs & websites • Web-based cases with audio and video • Cases for Quantitative Reasoning • Cases for Evaluating Evidence • Cases for the Flipped Classroom? • Big question: how will we maintain and develop the primary case repositories? • Textbooks, e-books, print books, journals
Introductions • Who are YOU? • Three I am statements • What was the best thing about your class this semester? • What would you change? • Introduce yourself to one other person…then they will introduce you…
