2024 ASM Conference for Undergraduate Educators

While research shows that active learning techniques enhance student learning and accountability, introductory biology classes often assign static, at-home textbook assignments. Over the past decade, SimBio has developed a broad set of simulation-based tutorials to be used in place of a traditional textbook. With SimBio’s tutorials, students discover and explore important biological concepts using simulated experiments, questions with instant feedback, games, and more. Covering the intro curriculum (experimental design, cell biology, genetics, ecology, evolution, and more) with a maximum cost of $49/student, many classes across North America have adopted SimBio tutorials as the affordable and engaging textbook replacement.

Join us to learn about SimBio’s intro bio tutorials and some of the research behind them from our Director of Research, Dr. Eli Meir. Please bring your laptop and play along!
