Formulate testable hypotheses. These include hypotheses that are testable by students at the middle and high school levels. Design experiments to test an hypothesis and analyze and graphically display data produced from these experiments. These include experiments appropriate in science education. Students should be able to use and demonstrate these skills to others.
Students encounter various teaching styles and methods for the teaching of biology.
Students work in small groups or as a class which allows for sharing of ideas and information and encourages interaction not only between the students but with the faculty members as well. Describe the structures and organization of organisms that underlie basic life functions. This includes information that can be utilized in science education. Explain how genetic combinations produce visible effects and variations among physical features and cellular functions of organisms. Analyze the transmission of genetic traits, diseases, and defects.
