Bridge to Global Education in Biology, Chemistry and Environmental Sciences

This workshop introduces middle and high school science teachers to biology, chemistry and environmental sciences’ learning and research at AUS.

The workshop will discuss innovative teaching methodologies and resources as well as look into the practical aspect of science teaching. Teachers will tour the labs, participate in brainstorming sessions and learn about concepts that we expect students to know when they join one of our majors. This workshop is anticipated to be a starting point for academic collaboration between schools and the Department of Biology, Chemistry and Environmental Sciences.
