Unit 7 Discussion 1 3 Learning Objectives 1. College students will use the scientific method to study various areas of biology. 2. College students will understand the biological processes of mitosis and meiosis. 3. College students will understand/differentiate cellular organelles between animal, bacterial, and plant cells. Assessment 1. I will provide each college student with a document stating the steps of the scientific method and an example of an experiment. College students will be asked to design an experiment of their own using the scientific method in the laboratory. Once the experiment is complete, the results will be discussed. 2. I will provide a microscope and slides designated ‘mitosis’ or ‘meiosis’ to the college students in the laboratory. The slides will be labeled with a number, and I will have the key sheet on my person. College students will pair with a lab partner identify the various stages of mitosis or meiosis and write down which stage pairs with which number. Once the college students complete the task, I will check the work for accuracy. 3. I will provide a list of cellular organelles and a blank table with ‘animal’, ‘bacteria’, and ‘plant’ listed at the top of three columns. College students will pair off into groups of four in the lecture classroom then fill in the rows of which cell has the organelle as well as the function of said organelle to aid in studying for the examination. Common Mistakes Sometimes, as a professor and former student, group work just… does not want to work properly. Team friction is a big issue when group members do not contribute equally, therefore it causes problems with learning the material and producing a poor performance or presentation (Wilson et al. 2018). Many students always express to me their absolute loathing of group work just for the reasons stated previously. However, it is important to note that group work is necessary for teamwork in future occupations. Students need to recognize that group work can help them achieve goals for the future and the professor’s job is to display these objectives of how teamwork can be beneficial. References Wilson, K. J., Brickman, P., & Brame, C. J. (2018). Group Work. CBE life sciences education , 17 (1), fe1. https://doi.org/10.1187/cbe.17-12-0258 Unit 7 Discussion 2 Learning Objective #2: College students will understand the biological processes of mitosis and meiosis.
Assessment: I will provide a microscope and slides designated ‘mitosis’ or ‘meiosis’ to the college students in the laboratory. The slides will be labeled with a number, and I will have the key sheet on my person. College students will pair with a lab partner identify the various stages of mitosis or meiosis and write down which stage pairs with which number. Once the college students complete the task, I will check the work for accuracy. I will also ensure the students understand what is happening in each stage by asking the learner to match a description of the event in mitosis or meiosis taking place. Establishing a Connection: The college students will demonstrate the ability to recall information pertaining to the stages of mitosis and meiosis, which is the 9 th even of teaching (Gagne, 1970). By demonstrating retention and transfer, college students will be able to process to Biology II and apply the necessary information to progress in scientific classes. References Gagné, R. M. (1970).
