FREE Biomolecular Structure Class with stipend

June 22 - 26, 2015

Biomolecular Structure Class, June 22 – 26, NDSU, Fargo

The target audiences for this course are current or future high school STEM teachers in ND, SD or western Minnesota.  This is a professional development opportunity for high school STEM teachers, allowing them to incorporate items listed in the National Science Education Standards in their instruction. 

This course focuses on providing an understanding of the atomic structure of biomolecules like proteins, nucleic acids and their complex macromolecular assemblies and will provide teachers with tools and resources to teach their students, including how to build models for competitions such as the Protein Modeling Competition at the Science Olympiad.  

The course is FREE, as tuition plus housing and meals will be reimbursed upon completion of the course.  In addition, participants will be paid a small stipend and provided a molecular modeling kit for their classrooms.

I am happy to answer any questions regarding the course.   I can be contacted at the E-mail address/phone number below.
