This afternoon, we’re sharing a tweet thread from David Asai, Senior Director for Science Education at HHMI 🧵 1/8
I’m pleased to share an editorial published in @ScienceMagazine by Bruce Alberts @UCSF, Janet Coffey @MooreFound and me. We think the time has come to redo intro #biology education at colleges & universities. Here’s why. – David Asai 2/8 bit.ly/3uxoRQe
In the US, nearly 1M college students/year enroll in intro bio courses. For many students, this is the last time they’ll take a science class for the rest of their lives. So, we’ve got one shot to introduce these students to the process of science – that’s a big opportunity. 3/8
