Co‐creating biology learning accommodations in the inclusive classroom
In this research, students with disabilities participated in cogenerative dialogue to inform teachers of their science learning needs. Cogenerative dialogue provided a space where students could request educational accommodations that met their science learning needs. This research Page 12
shows that cogenerative dialogue can be a useful practice for students with disabilities as can inform biology teaching and in ways that an IEP often fails.

Evolution in the Science Classroom: What the Research Says
Keith Sheppard is Director of Science Education at Stony Brook University and an Associate Professor in the Department of Biochemistry and Cell Biology. Prior to arriving at Stony Brook in 2007 Dr. Sheppard was the Program Coordinator for Science Education at Teachers College, Columbia University with direct responsibility for Science Teacher Preparation programs.
Dr. Sheppard’s research activities include studying the historical development of the science curricula, investigating teachers’ conceptual understanding of science and the learning of science in informal educational settings. He is widely published in the Yield of science education and recent articles can be found in the Journal of Chemical Education, The Physics Teacher and CBE‐Life Sciences Education.

Chemical Evolution
Stanley Miller’s experiment will be outlined in which gases considered to be present in the early “primordial soup” that surrounded the earth, were sparked (similar to lightning), and condensed, releasing liquid that contained amino acids. This experiment is signiYicant as amino acids are found only in living things. Energy and forces that can rearrange molecules that evolve will be discussed. Filomena Califano St. Francis College

Investigating RNAi in C.elegans. Hands‐on workshop including a BLAST search.
RNAi (RNA interference) is recognised as an important mechanism for silencing genes in cells. This high school lab uses wild type and mutant strains of C.elegans to investigate this mechanism. Students distinguish the wild type worm with a silenced gene from a worm with the mutated gene, using PCR and DNA electrophoresis, and then do a BLAST search to Yind the human homolog of the mutant C.elegans gene.

Alternate Route to Teacher Education
Alternate Route Teacher Education/Transitional B CertiYicate Programs in NYS assist individuals who have completed non‐teaching four‐year degree majors and as well as individuals who are career changers in earning a graduate degree in education in exchange for a teaching commitment, typically a minimum of two years in NYC public schools; however teachers, especially Yirst‐ and second‐ year urban science teachers in alternate route certiYication programs, are more likely to Page 21
experience early teacher burnout because they do not have student teaching experiences and the beneYit of time to develop teaching skills in a traditional education program. This paper set utilized methodological frames, such as autobiography/autoethnography, Cultural‐Historical Activity Theory (CHAT), coteaching and cogenerative dialogues, to explore models of learning to teach science that: 1) increase opportunities to engage in positive encounters with classroom participants and 2) increase science teacher retention and student achievement trends in science education.

Out of the Trees, Darwin’s Tree Building Legacy
Insects transmit their genetic traits exactly like humans, but breed much faster. By examining how their genomes evolve from generation to generation and how those genomes differ among related species, knowledge can be gained that can eventually be used to Yight inherited human disease.
Dr. DeSalle is in the forefront of this effort. To date, he has isolated the genes and sequenced the DNA of 500 species of drosophila‐fruit Ylies‐from embryos to maturity. With the help of Dr. Ward Wheeler, also of the Division of Invertebrate Zoology, this information is used to create a database comparing the Ylies' genetic relationships with other species and organisms. Their ultimate goal is to do similar research on all the approximately 3,500 species of fruit Ylies, to build a complete evolutionary tree.
Our common genetic heritage‐we share 36 percent of our genes with insects and 99 percent with apes and chimpanzees‐is one of the many topics examined in the Museum's exhibition The Genomic Revolution, which Dr. DeSalle curated and which opened in May 2001.
Dr. DeSalle also works closely with scientists from the New York Wildlife Conservation Society on research in conservation genetics. With Dr. George Amato, he has developed a DNA test for caviar that can determine from a single egg if the product was illegally obtained from an endangered species. With Dr. Howard Rosenbaum, he is analyzing the DNA of blubber from the humpbacked whale of Madagascar. The results of this research will be used to determine if these whales have sufYicient genetic diversity to resist disease, or whether special conservation efforts will be needed to ensure survival of the species.
