EEB Tuesday Lunch Seminar: Fantastic biology instructors and where to find them
Lisa L. Walsh, U-M EEB Graduate Student
Please join us for our weekly brown bag lunch seminar.
Abstract
This Tuesday lunch seminar will cover results from multiple biology education research projects conducted at the University of Michigan. To better understand how the background of a Graduate Student Instructor (GSI) impacts student outcomes, we surveyed both GSIs and their undergraduate students in Introduction to Biology Lab. To assess the undergraduate Ecology, Evolution, and Biodiversity (EEB) major, we surveyed 42 seniors and found a discrepancy between general climate and inclusive practices. The seminar will conclude with suggested low-cost and meaningful changes we can make to improve inclusion in our EEB classes.
