课程名称：遗传学与社会：教育者课程 概述：本课程探讨遗传学的进步对社会的影响，以及在面对遗传技术时我们需要了解的伦理决策。内容涵盖克隆技术、基因增强和遗传信息的所有权。课程参与者将获得探索现代遗传学伦理的工具，并学习如何将这些问题融入课堂教学中。 课程大纲： 1. **引言与从孟德尔到1000基因组** - 描述：您将探索遗传学和基因组学的历史，并学习如何对遗传技术相关问题进行伦理思考。课程将展示如何利用伦理问题激发学生的兴趣，并发现学生的误解。 2. **DNA指纹识别、克隆与未来** - 描述：您将研究系统生物学、干细胞和克隆技术及其应用。同时，您将了解克隆的伦理问题，这是本周书面作业的基础。 3. **医学中的基因组学** - 描述：您将看到遗传信息如何用于个性化医疗，及在美国自然历史博物馆萨克勒比较基因组学研究所的视频导览。您还将应用《K-12科学教育框架》和下一代科学教育标准中的科学与工程实践，探讨如何在教学中引导学生讨论伦理问题。 4. **基因组、农业与社会** - 描述：本周您将学习基因改造食品的社会影响，并讨论如何将这一问题融入您的教学中。 本课程旨在为教育者提供有关伦理和社会问题的深刻理解，促进学生对遗传学的兴趣和认知。
Name:Introduction and From Mendel to 1000 Genomes
Description:You will explore the history of genetics and genomics, and be introduced to ways of thinking ethically about issues involving genetic technology. You will learn how ethical issues can be used to spark your students’ interest, and how to uncover students’ misconceptions.
Name:DNA Fingerprinting, Cloning, and the Future
Description:You will explore systems biology, stem cells, and cloning and the applications of these technologies. You will also learn about the ethics of cloning, which will be the basis for your written assignment, which opens this week.
Name:Genomics in Medicine
Description:You will see how genetic information is being used to individualize medical treatments and take a video tour of the Sackler Institute for Comparative Genomics at the American Museum of Natural History. You will also apply the Science and Engineering practices from A Framework for K-12 Science Education and the Next Generation Science Education Standards in considering how to engage students in discussion about ethics.
Name:Genomes, Agriculture, and Society
Description:This week you will learn about the societal implications of genetically modified food, and discuss ways to incorporate this issue into your teaching.
How have advances in genetics affected society? What do we need to know to make ethical decisions about genetic technologies? This course includes the study of cloning, genetic enhancement, and ownership of genetic information. Course participants will acquire the tools to explore the ethics of modern genetics and learn how to integrate these issues into their classrooms.
