Want to implement our resources with your students but aren’t sure where to start? Christina Wilson Bowers, Ph.D. uses our "The Science of the Extreme Athlete" video to spark student discussions about metabolism. https://lnkd.in/e7SSdkyP

Interested in professional learning that deepens your content knowledge in evolution — and works for your schedule? Check out our newly revamped Evolution Course for educators. https://lnkd.in/e7P38h6f This course now features an exportable learning journal to record implementation ideas, as well as embedded questions so that you can get immediate feedback on your understanding of the content.

Are you a life science instructor looking to connect with a small group of educators to discuss evidence-based teaching practices? Join one of BioInteractive's free Faculty Online Learning Communities (FoLCs)! https://cvent.me/w72qN2 To participate, educators must serve as a full- or part-time instructor for at least one life or environmental science course at a U.S. or Canadian high school, two-year college, or four-year college/university. More details, including FoLC topics and how to sign up, available at the link.

Calling all New England biology educators! We're holding two free, daylong workshops in October and November focused on modeling as a science practice. https://lnkd.in/e8Rp6Pjx Developing and Using Models to Explore Systems in Biology Using the phenomenon of lactase persistence, participants will engage in a series of BioInteractive activities aimed at helping students understand the connection between genetic inheritance and metabolic function. We will explore how developing and using models allows students to understand a biological system from multiple scales. Educators will explore a variety of data analysis and literacy strategies to support student learning. Saturday, October 18 at Dartmouth High School (Dartmouth, MA) Tuesday, November 4 at EASTCONN (Hampton, CT) Workshop content is the same for both workshops. Registration details and information found at link.

Calling all biology teachers in southeast Ohio! Join us for a free daylong workshop focused on modeling as a science practice on Friday, October 10, at Shenandoah High School (Sarahsville, OH). https://lnkd.in/dZtiRh-q Using BioInteractive Resources and the Science Practices to Support Student Understanding of Molecular and Classical Genetics To fully understand genetics, students must be able to use the science practices to connect the proteins produced via gene expression and an organism’s traits. During this workshop, we’ll explore free HHMI BioInteractive resources as part of a lesson sequence focused on helping students understand the relationship between molecular biology and classical genetics by exploring genetic diseases. Details and registration information can be found at the link.

Want to implement our resources with your students but aren’t sure where to start? Kristine Grayson uses our Breathing Biosphere interactive to help students connect metabolic pathways with biogeochemical cycles. https://bit.ly/BiosphereBI

Fall means conference season! Join us at a variety of state and national conference workshops – all facilitated by expert educators aimed at modeling how to implement our resources with your students. https://lnkd.in/eZhuFjDM Can’t make a conference? Be sure to check out our asynchronous online workshop on strategies to construct and revise a system models.

Our Resource Spotlight feature includes educators’ favorite resources for teaching a particular topic or practice. Here, Heather Peterson discusses how she uses a short film to help students visualize enzymes. https://lnkd.in/e24ZZsrx
