Rating
0.0 stars

In a class demonstration, the teacher places different pill types ("chalk" pill, gel pill, and gel tablet) into separate glass beakers of vinegar, representing human stomach acid. After 20-30 minutes, the pills dissolve. Students observe which dissolve the fastest, and discuss the remnants of the various pills. What they learn contributes to their ongoing objective to answer the challenge question presented in lesson 1 of this unit.

State Approaches to OER/No Cost/Low Cost Course Schedule Designators

Short Description:
The practice of adding either OER or no-cost/low-cost materials designators in course schedules is on the rise, aiming to give more visibility and transparency to students and administrators as to which courses offer these more affordable options. Few formal reports have been published on the implementation and impact of OER/No Cost/Low Cost designations integrated into course schedules at colleges and universities. This booklet aims to lessen the literature gap by providing written accounts of the course marking drivers, implementation strategies, challenges, and lessons learned presented by panelists at the 16th Annual Open Education Conference in Phoenix, Arizona, in October 2019.

Data Carpentry Genomics workshop lesson to learn how to structure your metadata, organize and document your genomics data and bioinformatics workflow, and access data on the NCBI sequence read archive (SRA) database. Good data organization is the foundation of any research project. It not only sets you up well for an analysis, but it also makes it easier to come back to the project later and share with collaborators, including your most important collaborator - future you. Organizing a project that includes sequencing involves many components. There’s the experimental setup and conditions metadata, measurements of experimental parameters, sequencing preparation and sample information, the sequences themselves and the files and workflow of any bioinformatics analysis. So much of the information of a sequencing project is digital, and we need to keep track of our digital records in the same way we have a lab notebook and sample freezer. In this lesson, we’ll go through the project organization and documentation that will make an efficient bioinformatics workflow possible. Not only will this make you a more effective bioinformatics researcher, it also prepares your data and project for publication, as grant agencies and publishers increasingly require this information. In this lesson, we’ll be using data from a study of experimental evolution using E. coli. More information about this dataset is available here. In this study there are several types of files: Spreadsheet data from the experiment that tracks the strains and their phenotype over time Spreadsheet data with information on the samples that were sequenced - the names of the samples, how they were prepared and the sequencing conditions The sequence data Throughout the analysis, we’ll also generate files from the steps in the bioinformatics pipeline and documentation on the tools and parameters that we used. In this lesson you will learn: How to structure your metadata, tabular data and information about the experiment. The metadata is the information about the experiment and the samples you’re sequencing. How to prepare for, understand, organize and store the sequencing data that comes back from the sequencing center How to access and download publicly available data that may need to be used in your bioinformatics analysis The concepts of organizing the files and documenting the workflow of your bioinformatics analysis

Protecting Your Online Privacy: A Hands-On Workshop for Non-Techies
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

This resource guide was created as an accompaniment for a hands-on, three-hour workshop on the basics of online privacy and security in a Canadian context. The workshop is designed for young adults and adults with basic computer/phone/online skills: we assume participants know how to get online, how to do basic internet searches, and how to install simple tools and software on their devices. The workshop is most often taught in public library settings.

This guide provides:
- an overview of security and privacy
- information about key privacy technologies including ad blockers, tracking detection, basic encryption tools, secure messaging tools and password management
- some "advanced" information on Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), Tor, private email services, and more
- instructional guides for basic tools, customized for Windows, MacOS, Android, iOS and ChromeOS devices

  This oral communication content includes several types of common college-level presentations including an informative speech, visual aid presentation, and Monroe's Motivated Sequence persuasive speech. All of the presentations are for critique and compatible with rubrics that examine basic elements of public speaking. All presentations in this series were delivered by student volunteers as part of a technology fellowship project at the University of Alaska Anchorage. Please note that student presenter first names were included as a way to promote classroom climate and respect when critiquing. It is found that students are more likely to critique in a respectful manner when the example speech presenter is named.
