Women have been notable members of numerous space shuttle missions into space. As a matter of fact, more than 30 of NASA’s space shuttle missions have included more than one woman.
This project addresses the "Connections" standard of the 5 C’s in ACTFL’s World Readiness Standards for Learning Languages. World language students will use technology as a tool to research, organize and communicate information about their vision for the ideal school.
This lab (lesson) will allow students to gain a modeled laboratory experience of how surface antigens (proteins)on blood cells are used to identify the type of blood we (humans) have. I will set-up the lab as CSI crime scene where students solve who the murderer is based on “blood” evidence.
This ETP is primarily focuses on the collaborative process of students learning information and teaching that information to their group (jigsaw) to establish background information for an experiment using the scientific method.
Coral bleaching research is at the heart of my fellowship in the Pringle Lab at Stanford, where they study the symbiosis between reef-building corals and dinoflagellate algae. This symbiosis is crucial to the survival of coral reefs.
The Goal of this ETP is to have students learn the basic math and science skills needed to perform dilutions correctly and on their own. Dilutions are a very integral part of everyday science /laboratory work but most students entering biology do not possess this skill.
In the last several decades so much attention has been in genetic advances and DNA and rightly so, but to ignore the expression of the genetics through proteins is a disservice to those advancements.
The Payne Paleobiology Lab at Stanford University focuses on extinction risks in marine animals.
