pre-lab

Please join Heidi Smith (Front Range Community College), as she talks about how you can use Virtual Labs  to integrate lab concepts with your lecture! Heidi shares how you can use the virtual labs product to extend the learning in lecture.  You can offer labs that were once thought to be difficult  due to lack of time, money, or lab equipment. 

One example,  the Biotechnology chapter in your course is awesome. Students read about gene cloning. You can offer the bacterial transformation lab to help your students begin to better understand biotechnology/cloning.  Heidi talks about the PCR lab in Connect Virtual Labs. She didn’t have the time or money to do the lab face-to-face. The PCR lab is easily deployed through Connect. Amplification of DNA is another challenging topic, and you can deploy a lab on the polymerase chain reaction.

This episode is hosted by Jim Connely (McGraw Hill Education). 

Please join Tami Hodge (McGraw Hill Education) & Heidi Smith (Front Range Community College), as they talk about the importance of a solid pre-lab approach. Moving from a print oriented pre-lab to a digital one with McGraw Hill Virtual Labs revolutionized Heidi Smith's lab. 80-90% of her students do the pre-lab work and show up the most prepared! 

Please join Tami Hodge (McGraw Hill Education) & Jason Furrer (University of Missouri), as they talk about the importance of practicing lab content and skills with McGraw Hill's virtual labs. Jason talks about weaving in personal experiences (his wife is a nurse) and making sure you have time to have your students talk through things they are learning. Jason gives some solid tips to make your science course better!
