只是想提请您关注一下今年我在伊利诺伊大学开设的进化医学课程的学生运营的班级博客。我使用了与去年相同的作业和评分标准,这是对马克·桑普尔在Profhacker上的博客作业的修改版本(我去年在这里写过关于此事的文章)。

看看,让我的学生们知道您对他们工作的看法!

您也可以查看去年的博客,以及学生们在为期一个学期的项目中所写的个人博客(每日填充小憩一下舒适美食)。本学期,还有两位荣誉学生也将主持个人博客。一旦它们上线,我也会分享这些博客。

今年,我没有采用80/20项目,而是尝试在下半学期进行全班范围的问题导向学习(PBL)作业。我们每周五都会进行小组PBL,为期半个学期,为这个过程热身。

I am Dr. Kate Clancy, Assistant Professor of Anthropology at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. On top of being an academic, I am a mother, a wife, an athlete, a labor activist, a sister, and a daughter. My beautiful blog banner was made by Jacqueline Dillard. Context and variation together help us understand humans (and any other species) as complicated. But they also help to show us that biology is not immutable, that it does not define us from the moment of our birth. Rather, our environment pushes and pulls our genes into different reaction norms that help us predict behavior and physiology. But, as humans make our environments, we have the ability to change the very things that change us. We often have more control over our biology than we may think.
