Description
Recombinant DNA and Biotechnology: A Guide for Teachers is the first "how-to" book that focuses on teaching and learning basic biotechnology and molecular biology. A reference text and an activities manual, this book is written in clear, easy-to-understand language and is divided into easy-to-implement lessons and classroom activities.Part I covers basic molecular biology while part II offers imaginative dry labs and wet labs that can be done by both college and precollege students. Part III is an innovative section addressing the social issues and public concerns of biotechnology. Part IV provides important background information on basic laboratory techniques and teaching resources, including overhead masters and templates.Developed over an eight-year period, this unique book was developed as an outgrowth of molecular biology and biotechnology teaching workshops. All of the exercises and lab activities included in this text have been extensively tested in the classroom by hundreds of high school teachers.Recombinanat DNA and Biotechnology was designed to interest an international teaching audience and will enable all instructors to teach a reasonable amount of molecular biology and genetic engineering to their students. No other book makes it so easy or compelling for teachers to incorporate the "new biology" into their biology, biological sciences, or general science curriculum.Recombinant DNA and Biotechnology: A Guide for Teachers will enable college and pre-college teachers to plan and conduct an exciting and contemporary course on the basic principles, essential laboratory activities, and relevant social issues and concerns attendant to today's molecular biologyrevolution. The Guide for Teachers contains the complete text of the student edition plus the answers to all discussion questions and extra background information and material on the scientific principles involved.
