  1. Kathy zoghby University of Richmond Richmond, Virginia PUI with ~2800 undergraduates Push for average class size of 16 Average SAT (math and reading) 1280 20% of undergraduates come from Virginia 17% of undergraduates are American students of color 5% of undergraduates are international students 91% of undergraduates live on campus

  2. Reason for applying to BSPRR • Non-majors science students in Human Genetics course • Challenge of engaging this resistant population • May, 2009 I attended the Teaching Case Studies in Science workshop, Buffalo, NY and ASMCUE • Class was re-created using the active learning pedagogy of team-based learning (TBL)

  3. Can the use of team-based learning in a non-majors Human genetics classroom lead to Higher student learning gains?

  4. Research Design • Survey of demographics – GPA, class year, major, genetics information background • Pre-class interest in science survey (Likert scale) • Compare final grades and final exam scores • Genetics Concept Assessment (Smith, et al., 2008) • Selected questions from assessment and correlate with answers on post science knowledge survey(Likert scale) • Does team-based learning increase potential for non-majors science learning gains……… STAY TUNED
