This project will develop a new biology curriculum for non-majors which develops the knowledge base, the observational skills, and intellectual study habits of students in an area of science which will allow for continued learning without formal instruction; act as an instrument to change student values; and will lead students to a recognition of the interplay between science and public affairs. To achieve these ends the PI proposes an experimentally based curriculum for non-majors which focuses on open ended laboratory/workshop activities and de-emphasizes lectures and demonstrations.

该项目将开发一个针对非律师的新生物学课程，该课程在科学领域发展知识库，观察技能和知识学习习惯，这将允许在没有正式教学的情况下继续学习；充当改变学生价值观的工具；并将引导学生认可科学与公共事务之间的相互作用。 为了实现这些目的，PI提出了一项基于实验的课程，以专注于开放式实验室/研讨会活动，并取消强调讲座和演示。
