This initial workshop will introduce you to the benefits of course-based undergraduate research experiences and explain how the BASIL curriculum can be integrated into the biochemistry curriculum. Workshops are offered several times per year in virtual and in-person formats. Check the events page for dates and registration information.
We offer workshops to help you learn how to assess your students scientific skill development, targeting learning skills that are often hard to assess, including the development of critical thinking skills, data analysis, and systems thinking.
