PreService Biology Teachers at KU or anywhere else
Public Group active 5 months, 1 week agoThis is an online meeting place for pre-service biology teachers. UKanTeach students and students from KU’s school of Education GLP program have developed an informal organization to explore biology teaching resources, living organisms in the classroom, field experiences, laboratories and professional involvement. Students from other institutions are welcome as are veteran teachers. Mostly this forum will serve as a starting point–an organizational tool for the students. We hope that the group will generate KABT BioBlog postings of their experiences that will serve as a resource for all new biology teachers.

PreService Biology Teachers at KU: 1 year, 6 months agoHere’s a list of resources I got from Brad. I needed to type up a resource list for a class so I just used Brad’s suggestions. Anyway it’s the site, and what I thought of it (I have only spent a limited amount of time on each site, so bare that in mind). If you have any you would like to add please feel free!

That is cool William…Glad you got it to work out. 42 minutes is a stretch—if only you’d had 5 more minutes.
