Teaching a Bioseparations Laboratory: From Training to Applied Research

Authors

  • Daniel Forciniti Missouri University of Science and Technology

Abstract

The partnership between a K-12 teacher (Culligan), an NSF GK-12 Teaching Fellow graduate student (Bearden), and a Louisiana Tech faculty member (Mainardi) collaborating in a research and education project is described in this work. The unique grouping of these three researchers allows for maximum dissemination of developed modules. By the end of the 6-week RET program, the group develops modules to explain the concept of the research conducted on the modeling of enzymes.
