BIO 530 - Laboratory Techniques in Modern Biology A laboratory experience for students seeking professional teacher certification (Biology 7-12). The laboratory course is designed to prepare students to teach science as an active learning process and clearly illustrate that students learn science by “doing” science not by having it done to them. Teacher candidates will apply the science content of the core curriculum to new questions and learn to engage students in problem solving, decision making and group discussions through hands-on exercises and experiments. Teacher candidates will be required to articulate the content they know, develop hypotheses and design experiments in compliance with the National Science Education Standards (NSES), National Science Teachers Association (NSTA) and New York State Education Department’s Living Environment Curriculum. In addition, teacher candidates will be prepared to be career-long learners by finding sources of information and organizations for professional development. Laboratory Credits: 1 Prerequisite, BIO 510
