Case Study: Earwax...Is That Genetic?
This activity is a case study that draws from the work of Yoshiura et al (2006), where a single base substitution in the ABCC11 gene can result in phenotypic change in earwax consistency. A New York Times article discussing this study is used as the main reading of this activity, as it discusses the case without using key terminology and without specifically explaining the genetics behind the...

Thinking About Science Survey
This survey includes 28 statements regarding the process of science. Students must decide how strongly they agree or disagree with each statement. These questions are intended to give the instructor information as to how accurate students' knowledge is concerning the process of science. This resource includes an answer key and lists what concept is tested with each statement. This survey is...

Teachable Tidbit: Photosynthesis for Non-Majors
In this activity, a visual model of the reactions of photosynthesis (and to a lesser extent, respiration) is provided to students. Students evaluate the model in groups, and subsequently use it to answer questions about the model as presented, as well as the results of perturbations to the pathways indicated in the model. These ?perturbation? questions require students to step back and ana...

Genomics & GMOs Teachable Tidbit: When life gives you lemons…make pink lemonade
In this activity (app. 25 min), a case-study style problem is presented to students (?The Roundup Story") that describes the use of roundup (herbicide) in agriculture, and the development of ?roundup ready? crop strains. The case study approach incorporates a great number of questions, which are designed to guide the students to a clear understanding of how genetically modified organisms (GMOs...

Central Dogma - Genes to Phenotype Teachable Tidbit (The Sciurus Case of the Black Squirrel)
In this approximately 20 to 25 minute lecture activity, students work collaboratively in groups to learn about the genetic basis of, and molecular mechanisms behind, the variation observed in squirrel coat color. As components of the activity, students will respond in groups to clicker style questions, and will work together to complete a worksheet that, ultimately, requires the construction of a...
