R EASON FOR APPLYING TO BSPRR Non-majors science students in Human Genetics course Challenge of engaging this resistant population May, 2009 I attended the Teaching Case Studies in Science workshop, Buffalo, NY and ASMCUE Class was re-created using the active learning pedagogy of team-based learning (TBL)

C AN THE USE OF TEAM - BASED LEARNING IN A NON - MAJORS H UMAN GENETICS CLASSROOM LEAD TO H IGHER STUDENT LEARNING GAINS ? Active Learning Better Grades EngagementAttitude

R ESEARCH D ESIGN Survey of demographics – GPA, class year, major, genetics information background Pre-class interest in science survey (Likert scale) Compare final grades and final exam scores Genetics Concept Assessment (Smith, et al., 2008) Selected questions from assessment and correlate with answers on post science knowledge survey(Likert scale) Does team-based learning increase potential for non-majors science learning gains……… STAY TUNED
