1. Questions on Teaching Bioinformatics

2. Philosophical questions: What skills do students need? (biology, math, programming, etc.) When to introduce these concepts to students? In what depth? Most effective way to team-teach a bioinformatics course? Who has done this? What was their experience? Did the students learn? How did the instructors work to improve the course?

What is the correct content / concept balance to provide our students? Different disciplines will vary in which areas of bioinformatics they deem important.
