I. Teaching Objectives and Strategies
Overarching Goals
Undergraduate education is not so much about learning facts as it is about providing
the students with the tools they need to learn independently. In that way, we are teaching
the students to think critically and to learn how to learn. Yes, the students acquire facts and
skills along the way, but in my opinion, the big picture comes from changing how they
approach the process of learning. Students who learn to take control of their own intellectual
development become life-long achievers. The main task is to engage the students and vest
them in the learning process. I strive to achieve this goal by providing challenging and
thought provoking exercises for the students to think about in and outside of class. Students
spend a lot of time looking at and analyzing biochemical data and participating in openended exercises as part of this curriculum.
Approaches and Strategies
As stated above, my goal is to enable students. While there is some factual
knowledge they should learn during the course, I will have succeeded as an educator if I
teach the students to think about the material in new ways and make new connections
between what they see and read and what they “know”. Learning is not about having a fact
at ready recall (although that is helpful sometimes) but about being able to put diverse
pieces of information together and synthesize a cohesive scaffold of knowledge. For those
students that truly take this message to heart, they learn to interpolate from the facts they
know and fill in through logic to the information they do not have at their fingertips. This
technique needs practice. Students are pressed not to recite and recall information, but to
use the bits provided to them to think out the next step in the puzzle. Examples are given at
each level of assessment. They see example problems in lecture. They are asked questions
using a classroom response system to actively embrace a piece of material or solve a
problem on their own or with their neighbors. They are then asked to do in-depth work on
problem sets. These questions reinforce the concepts from class and make them put into
context information from the textbook, from lectures and from biochemistry and
bioinformatics web sites they are directed towards. In this way, they learn to develop a
framework of knowledge within the field and use diverse information resources to tackle
biochemical problems.
Finding, Understanding and Making Use of Online Biochemical Data Resources
Many students enter my class having never used the Internet for serious scientific
work. Instead, they see it as a tool for recreation and finding cheap airline tickets. In this
post-genomic era, computers are essential tools for studying biochemistry and I use my
course as a vehicle for teaching them about the databases and resources that I use on a
daily basis to do my research. Students learn not only where to find information, but also
how to use the tools that parse and filter the flood of data and how to evaluate the
significance of output that is returned from any database search. In the process, they also
have to integrate concepts from various facets of the course to understand the
bioinformatics projects. These projects promote open-ended inquiry and help the student
place the course material into a broader context.
2
Evaluation of Student Learning
As evidenced in my syllabi, a variety of means are used to evaluate student learning.
The diversity of assessments is necessary to respect the differing strengths and
weaknesses of individual students. By providing a range of graded exercises, this allows
students to show their learning in different ways. My course include classic performance
evaluations like timed exams and quizzes (approx. 65% of the grade), but also through
open-ended exercises on problem sets (25%) and participation in classroom discussions
(10%). The problem sets also provide an opportunity for creativity. The 4th problem set in
CHM5600, for instance is quite different. It is based on an exercise Prof. John Woolford
uses very effectively at Carnegie Mellon University where the students are challenged to
represent a biochemical problem accurately in an artistic medium. In W2007, students
worked on protein synthesis for this exercise. They were challenged to depict through art
(broadly defined) the decoding of a messenger RNA into protein. The students wrote a short
(max 1 page) description of how their work (sculpture, song, painting, video, etc.) represents
the biological activity and where artistic license led them to deviate from strict scientific
accuracy. The outcomes were superb including original songs, videos and multimedia
projects. Many of the students posted their projects on-line including one now on YouTube.
After reading the book Academically Adrift, I have begun incorporating more writing
into my curricula. This year, in 6620 and 5600, students have done a project involving
reading about biochemistry in the lay press. They were asked to find a specific newspaper
article, or blog post, or in one case a product insert from a neutraceutical they were taking.
They were asked to think about this article through the lens of the biochemistry course they
had just taken and reflect on what they had learned over the semester that changed the way
they read the article. While there was skepticism at first, the quality of most of the
assignments showed a genuine effort on their part to apply what they had learned to a
scenario we face constantly – evaluating information in a daily context and assessing
whether it is accurate or inaccurate and judging whether what we read jives with our
understanding of how the underlying science really works.

Brief Course Descriptions
CHM 5600 – Survey of Biochemistry
CHM5600 is a one-semester biochemistry course similar to C483 described below. I taught
the course for the first time in Winter 2007 to approximately 35 students. This course covers
topics including: the structure and function of biological macromolecules, enzyme catalysis,
metabolism and biological information transfer. The students use bioinformatics data mining
projects to help integrate the course material.
CHM 6620/7620 - Metabolism
CHM6620 is the first semester of a 2-semester sequence required for majors in Biological
Chemistry and Chemical Biology. It provides a survey of the structure and function of
proteins and the way proteins work together to carry out metabolic transformations. The
course focuses extensively on the mechanisms of these transformations, the manner in
4
which enzymes facilitate rate acceleration of these reactions and the way in which enzymes
can be regulated to control the metabolic output of cells and/or organs.
CHM 6635/7635 - Tools of Molecular Biology
CHM6635 is a one-term biochemistry course focused on teaching students experimental
design in biochemistry and molecular biology. It has been developed for the new
Biochemistry and Chemical Biology Major to augment a laboratory that is still very recipe
oriented. The ultimate goal is to use the understanding from this course to allow the
laboratory curriculum to become more open-ended such that the students can put into
practice the tools being taught here. The course focuses heavily on hands on design such
that 1 or 2 breakout sessions occur during every class period to allow students to work
together to carry out a design task. We then reconvene to discuss the results and the
suggestions put forth by the groups to learn from both the successful proposals as well as
those that might have had misconceptions that would have prevented the experiment from
succeeding.
CHM 7740 - Responsible Conduct of Research
This course provides students with practice identifying and dealing with ethical issues that
they may confront in their professional careers. The class sessions are structured around
the discussion of case studies and deal with issues such as conflicts of interest,
confidentiality, biological and chemical safety, data ownership and managing professional
relationships such as those between mentors and mentees. The course also helps students
talk through appropriate ways to report potential ethical issues that have been encountered
and to think through the potential outcomes of action or inaction on all of the stakeholders.
CHM 5998 – Honors Thesis Research in Chemistry
Original research project and thesis required for a B.S. degree in chemistry with honors (2
students).
CHM 5999 –Undergraduate Research in Chemistry
Original research project and report required for a B.S. degree in chemistry (2 students).
CHM 8840 – Biochemistry Seminar
This is a weekly seminar series in biochemistry. Consists of a mixture of internal and
external speakers. External speakers present work from their own lab. Internal speakers are
2nd and 4th year graduate students presenting literature topics as part of their Ph.D.
requirements for public speaking.
CHM 7990 – Directed Study in Biochemistry
Oversaw lab rotations for biochemistry students who wished to spend 10-weeks doing short
research projects in each of 3 laboratories during the advisor selection process.
CHM 8700 – Graduate Research in Chemistry
This is a placeholder for first and second year graduate students in the Chemistry Ph.D.
program. Students perform original research as part of their dissertation work and this
course represents the time they are working in the laboratory. Converts to CHM9991-9994

III. Evidence of Teaching Effectiveness
i. Pre- and post-test comparisons to assess learning gains
Most semesters, I administer a pre-test on the first day of class. Students are
reassured that the placement quiz does not count and they are not necessarily expected to
score well on the exercise. Unbeknownst to the students, the last quiz of the term is identical
to the entry quiz and serves as a post-test. This allows me to assess the learning gains of
my students over the course of the semester. Learning gains are calculated using eq. 1
where I is the improvement, Spost is the score on the post test and Spre is the score on the
pre-test.
𝐼=
!!"#$ !!!"#
!!!!"#
eq. 1
In 6620, the average learning gain over the 2 years I taught the course was 0.51. In the
physics community, learning gains in traditional lecture courses are often around 0.23 ± 0.04
whereas active engagement courses score substantially higher, 0.48 ± 0.141. Thus, 0.51
fairs quite well relative to other courses. More importantly, however, this analysis allows me
to break down the information more finely, looking at individual questions and topics to
determine which units were more or less effective than others. Knowing where I am being
effective as an educator is quite important as it allows me to adjust my teaching methods the
next time I teach the course.

IV. Contributions to Course and Curricular Development
Research Ethics (CHM7740)
For many years, I have had annual research ethics discussions during group
meeting. At these sessions, we worked on case studies and used it as an opportunity to
have frank discussions on expectations and standards within the lab. These discussions
provide students and post-docs with a framework regarding how to approach ethically gray
situations and how to think about stakeholders and potential actions in response to
situations they might encounter. Starting in F2008, we took this to a wider audience and I
moderated a discussion of this type at the department level. Using a biochemistry research
seminar slot, we invited all of the biochemistry lab groups as well as any additional labs that
wanted to join us for a discussion of 4 ethics case studies. The cases were provided in
advance and the discussions were animated and seemingly quite successful. We will
continue to have these sessions annually to ensure all new students are exposed to our
expectations and to foster continued discussion at the department wide level of proper
comportment within laboratories and research groups. This has now developed into a new
curriculum component based on CHM7740 (described above), which is a new course, all
graduate students in the WSU chemistry department are required to take.
CHM6635 – Tools of Molecular Biology
When I first taught CHM6635 in 2009, it was an original course developed for the new
Biochemistry and Chemical Biology Major offered through the chemistry department. This
course accompanies the laboratory curriculum but has somewhat different aims. In its
current incarnation, the biochemistry lab provides relatively canned experimental
experiences. The laboratories are designed in advanced and students can carryout the
exercises by simply following the step-by-step experimental procedures provided. While the
lab curriculum offers the students the opportunity to try things with their hands, it has little
opportunity for inquiry-based experiences and does not require the students to actual design
experiments to test hypotheses the way they would have to in a research lab. The goal of
CHM6635 is to help bridge this divide and teach students to develop their experimental
design skills. The course revolves around design of biochemical experiments. Exercises
challenge the students to think about real experiences that they might encounter in the
laboratory and then design the experiment from ground zero. While they don’t have to
actually perform the experiments with their hands, they get graded on whether their design
is likely to achieve the stated aim. It forces them to think about the minute details required to
properly plan a complex experiment (such as purification of a protein or amplification of a
specific gene from the human genome) and make experimental decisions regarding the best
approach to achieve a particular experimental aim. Class time is broken into segments
where teams of students actually work on design problems and then the class reconvenes
to discuss the approaches used by the different groups. Students are also taught to use
product literature and research articles to evaluate procedures and use this information to
assist them in designing experimental protocols.

Exploration of TCA cycle reactions using colored paper clips (4 red clips
representing oxaloacetate and 2 silver clips to represent Acetyl-CoA) to trace the
carbons through the chemical reactions
Assessing the importance and function of Telomeres in the end-replication
problem
Examples of Student work from CHM5600 Creative Projects
When I have taught CHM5600, I usually use a creative project as the capstone
assignment to the course. In Winter 2007, students were asked to represent the process of
translation in a creative medium. They then had to write a one page essay to accompany
the work, explaining it (if not immediately obvious) and describing where creative license
was taken such that what was shown was not completely accurate. Students were allowed
to work in small groups on more complicated projects. I received several songs, several
videos as well as a number of multimedia pieces. The folder labeled Appendix F contains 3
of the songs that were recorded by my students as part of this project. The song by John
DeVries was particularly well done. One of the groups posted their video on YouTube. It can
be found at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XV3H71ygUi0.

V. Efforts to Improve Teaching
Annual Cottrell Conference
I participate in the annual Cottrell Conference in Tucson, Arizona. This conference attracts
chemists, physicists and astronomers, all teacher scholars and all current or former
recipients of the Cottrell Scholars Award. This 3-day conference involves active workshops
on new pedagogies and initiatives aimed at transforming STEM education through research
based teaching practices. It also brings to the table many of the stakeholders from non-profit
organizations spearheading education initiatives to provide an active discussion on how we
can work together toward achieving our common goals.

second focuses on observations regarding inquiry–based methods in the classroom. I
have also presented 7 talks at national meetings on the topic of inquiry–based
teaching and assessment of curricular reform projects and was presented the
Keynote Lecture at the 2004 Great Lakes Colleges Association Workshop on
Bioinformatics.
•
Pedagogical Development Projects
While at Indiana University, I served as co–PI on a 4–year grant funded by HHMI to
implement experimental curriculum in life–sciences education. I had two main
responsibilities in this program. I helped develop the Integrated Freshman Learning
Environment (IFLE) curriculum that replaced introductory courses with an
interdisciplinary inquiry–based 2–term sequence that taught students basic topics
through experimental design and problem solving. The curriculum addressed
common problems in biology at the levels of subcellular biochemistry, cell/molecular
biology and systems biology. I also oversaw the Biochemistry CAPSTONE program
that encouraged undergraduate research and provided monetary support for students
during their Jr. and Sr. years.
•
New Faculty Workshops in Chemistry
Together with Prof. Rory Waterman at University of Vermont, I have been awarded a
grant from Research Corporation for Science Advancement to start new faculty
development workshops to help young faculty develop as Teacher-Scholars. These
workshops have garnered additional support from the Education Division of the
American Chemical Society. Modeled after the AAPT New Faculty program for
Physicists and Astronomers, this program will focus heavily on training new faculty
from across the country on how to implement interactive pedagogies and scientific
teaching in their own classrooms. The first workshop will take place in Washington,
D.C. on Aug. 8-10, 2012. For more information on this program, see the website for
this workshop, which can be found at: http://csc.rescorp.org/facultyworkshop/index.html.
