This course is an in-depth adventure through the molecular mechanisms that control the maintenance, expression, and evolution of prokaryotic and eukaryotic genomes. Through lectures and readings of relevant literature, students will explore gene regulation, DNA replication, genetic recombination, transcription, and mRNA translation. The quizzes are designed to build students’ experimental design and data analysis skills. This course, based on the MIT course 7.28/7.58 Molecular Biology taken by enrolled MIT students, was organized as a three-part series on edX by MIT’s Department of Biology. It is self-paced and free as long as you enroll in the Audit Track option, which you can select after creating a free account on edX.

This course, in true meta fashion, is a series of asynchronous online learning modules with a goal of teaching you how to design and develop asynchronous online learning modules. These asynchronous online learning modules can be used in any number of situations, ranging from training colleagues in a company professional development setting to teaching a college course to offering a Massive Open Online Course (MOOC).
This course is split into five modules: 1) Introduction to asynchronous online learning modules and backward design 2) Learning Objectives and Bloom's Taxonomy 3) Assessments 4) Learning Resources 5) Canvas, Module Organization, and the "Connective Tissue"
Overall learning objectives: - Use instructional design principles and best practices to design an effective learning module; - Design assessments that allow you – and the learners themselves – to measure whether your learners have mastered the skills and concepts you consider important; - Curate and create learning resources to guide your learners in gaining mastery of skills and concepts; - Present your learning module asynchronously in a logically organized and explained manner; - Code your learning module into the Canvas Learning Management System for your learners to access.
