Teachstravaganza is a collaborative curricular development workshop that brings Allen Institute scientists into the same room with undergraduate biology educators experienced in curricular innovation & inclusive practice.
The workshop will begin with introductions to the Allen Institute as a whole, and the ongoing scientific projects in the Allen Institute for Cell Science. These projects will serve as starting points for pedagogical innovation. During the remainder of the workshop, participants will work in teams in partnership with Allen Institute for Cell Science to develop learning modules appropriate to their needs as educators. Teams will also develop plans for evaluation/assessment of their designs and how their work will be shared more broadly. The participants will establish relationships among themselves and with the Allen Institute Education & Engagement team to continue project development after the in-person summer event is over.
