Subverting the Genetics Curriculum

DNA fingerprinting in the News! Personal genomics in the News! Blah blah blah... meiotic pairing and crossing over in a translocation heterozygote... restriction fragment length polymorphisms...blah blah blah 5 min 45 min Blah blah blah...dosage compensation in Drosophila... mapping genes using a three- factor testcross...blah blah blah 5 min 45 min

We’re teaching the wrong stuff! But this is what David Suzuki taught. But we’re training future geneticists. But we’re teaching critical thinking and problem- solving. Back home at UBC...

My goals for Useful Genetics: Maximize the real value of the genetics students learn (value to students, beyond the university) No suitable textbook exists, so the course must be self- contained Minimize amount of background knowledge needed. Students should be able to explain what they’ve learned to others. Design as a replacement for existing second-year introductory genetics courses As a Coursera course: Open-book assessments– all require thinking about the material

Video lectures Practice quizzes Discussion forums Readings etc. Graded quizzes Peer-explains (Coursera system) Online exams Course components

What about 5’-5’ end-joining? Is this all the ends? Aren’t there really 7 ways? Can broken ends be joined to unbroken ones? Can they be joined upside down?

Genetics for Life A for-credit alternative to Fundamentals of Genetics

Must fill the same role in the curriculum: have the same prerequisites be acceptable as a prerequisite for the same courses. Relationship of Genetics for Life to Fundamentals of Genetics Plan: First teach as special section of Fundamentals of Genetics (demonstrate that it meets all important goals) Work with teaching fellow to ensure sufficient overlap of learning objectives and material taught Then set up next year as an independent course

A new genetics option for 2 nd -year biology students Standard ‘Fundamentals of Genetics’ sections (BIOL , 102 and 201): face-to-face lectures & tutorial focus on preparation for research New Genetics for Life section of BIOL 234: Available Fall 2014 (register for BIOL ) short online video lectures face-to-face tutorial (2 hr, evening available) focus on roles of genetics in our lives. based on the UBC MOOC Useful Genetics satisfies all Biology Program requirements info at

The courses will run simultaneously: Useful Genetics students Video lectures Practice quizzes Discussion forums Readings etc. Graded quizzes Peer-explains (Coursera system) Online exams UBC Genetics for Life students Face-to-face tutorials (weekly, 2 hr) Graded quizzes Peer-explains (Calibrated Peer Review) Paper exams Biology Program
