Our online platform lets you learn with teachers around the world who will bring tomorrow’s science into today’s classrooms.
Bio-Builder’s workshops will impact your understanding of biology and your approach to teaching it.
Co-taught by Bio-Builder’s Founder and Executive Director, Dr. Natalie Kuldell, and one of Bio-Builder’s expert high school teachers, our workshops combine classroom, laboratory, and design activities that are both accessible and inspiring. You’ll leave with ready-to-teach lessons that bring engineering into your biology classrooms, labs, or science clubs.
Bio-Builders will offer its Teacher Professional Development workshops in a more flexible format throughout the academic year.
Participating teachers will have access to Bio-Builders's online lectures, readings, and activities to cover at their own pace over two weeks, and then can join two live laboratory sessions taught by Bio-Builders instructors to synchronously prep and run the Bio-Builders experiment. Bio-Builders Essentials Training: Part 1 will cover the Eau That Smell experiment and Part 2 will cover the Colorful World experiment and Biodesign training. Participating teachers will receive a copy of the Bio-Builders textbook and an lab kit (either Eau That Smell or Colorful World), sent to their school in advance.
Completion of Part 1 is required for participation in Part 2.
If your school is interested in setting up a workshop for more than five teachers, please reach out to us at info@bio-buillders.com with the subject line “Teacher Professional Development Inquiry,” and we can explore scheduling a time that works for your teachers!
