Undergraduate instructors of non-majors biology courses are invited to this workshop to learn more about implementing activities and resources developed by the IGELS (Interactions in General Education Life Science) project. IGELS “Catalysts” will be introduced to the suite of IGELS resources and frameworks, including the LifeSkills guide, the Intentional Pedagogy Framework, and new models of Scientific Literacy and the Undergraduate Science Education Ecosystem. This workshop will provide the Catalysts an opportunity to reflect on their personal teaching philosophies and course curricula and develop an action plan for using the IGELS frameworks. Interested participants will have additional opportunities to participate in the IGELS research project with mentoring and financial support. Lunch and registration to the NABT conference will be provided. Space is limited.
