Cell Signaling Network Handbook for Freshman Biology Students

This project delves into cell signaling as a network, helping freshman students grasp the complexities with a novel approach. Starting with pretest questions, it progresses through defining terminology, creating analogies, peer reviewing, refining analogies and practicing exam questions. The evidence phase involves midterm assessments and exploring disease consequences of network flaws, culminating in final analogies for specific scenarios. Post-course surveys evaluate learning outcomes to enhance future iterations. This innovative methodology aids in understanding complex signaling pathways through practical applications.

  1. Bioscholar Project 2009 Cell Signaling as Network Karen Curto University of Pittsburgh

  2. My Question CELL SIGNALING TEXTBOOK REALISTIC SIMPLE PATHWAY Network

  3. Context • Honors Foundations of Biology 1 • 25 freshman students unprepared for • Upper level courses • Complex networks • many intermediates • cross talk within cell • modulated responses

  4. Research Design • Pretest questions • cell signaling terminology • complex cell response • First article • Student pairs • define terminology & function of characteristic molecules • Subsequent disease articles (repeatedly) • Create network analogy • Peer review • Refine, revise, recreate analogy over semester • Practice with exam type questions

  5. Evidence • Midterm • Student knowledge • Explain 2-3 ways disease “X” results from network flaw • Student opinion • Final • Use your final analogy for cell network scenario “X” • Prior practice-type questions • Post course survey • Repeat pre course survey questions

  6. Thank you Team 3 Janet Ron Brinda Mary Mary Pat
