Prepping Your Biology Students for Success
Undergraduate Biology - Hybrid Delivery in 2022
Do your students struggle with the breadth and depth of your course? Are they as engaged as you would like them to be? Is managing a large cohort and supporting struggling students causing you a headache? How do you offer timely feedback to your students? Would you like to improve the efficiency of class time and lab sessions?
This event is an opportunity to hear from several experienced instructors about solutions they have found to meet some of these challenges and better support their students to success on their course. Join us for a live panel discussion where educators Mathijs Bergman, James Carolan, Sabrina Tosi and David Tree will explore how they have used digital tools to enhance their students' study and employability skills.

David Tree Dr David Tree is Reader in Biosciences and Director of Teaching and Learning for Life Sciences at Brunel University London, UK, where he has taught since 2005. He is a developmental geneticist who uses Drosophila genetics to study the genetic, molecular, and cell biological mechanisms controlling patterning during embryonic development and the homeostasis of adult tissues and organs. His current work in the lab focuses on cellular reception and integration of extracellular signals to regulate cell polarity, tissue homeostasis, and aging. |
