Experiential learning program in genomics and biotechnology
This program targets 9-12 high school science teachers. It is a 10-day workshop
designed to help teachers develop some baseline knowledge of genomics and
biotechnology and to subsequently incorporate this into their science curriculum. It
is designed for teachers who have had very little exposure to these technologies
particularly those who serve disadvantaged and rural institutions.
