BioQUEST and the Botanical Society of America invite faculty interested in incorporating resources from contemporary plant research into undergraduate curricula. At the Missouri Botanical Garden and Southeast Missouri State University we explore a subset of the tools, data, and resources used in plant science with a special emphasis on quantitative reasoning, visualization and inquiry-based learning.
This 8-day workshop features four introductory workshops in a collaborative setting:
- GIS Research and Education
- Evolution of Resurrection Plants
- Plant Genomics
- Modeling Plant Growth Data
Additional shorter workshops during the week focus on:
- OER Commons: Web-based Collaboration and Multidisciplinary Resources
- Introducing Case-Based Learning
with Plant Science - Introduction to the BioQUEST Library VII OnLine
- Using ESTEEM tools in the classroom
- BSA and the PlantingScience Project
