Hello all, seeking some advice of the eminent wisdom of the group. =20
This semester I have been handed the reins on the senior Science Professions course. It's a 1 credit seminar where students get their resume and portfolios together. I would like to deliver an assessment exam to them that tests not only what they know, but perhaps most importantly, how well they think they know it. =20 Students in our program have 20-25 credits each in biology (lots of biotech) and chemistry (organic, biochem) as well as physics and calculus. =20 What I have been quizzing my colleagues on (with no shortage of debate) what are the 10 or so fundamental principles students should know from each of these disciplines. =20 =20 If anyone has any experience with this type of thing, you thoughts, questions, ideas etc are always appreciated. =20 =20 Charles R.
