BioMolViz recently published a manuscript in this special issue, organized by guest editors from the VISABLI RCN-UBE network (Jodie Jenkinson, Susan Keen, and Gaël McGill). The articles in this issue are an excellent read for those interested in visualization education.
Call for Field Testing Partners
Last year, BioMolViz piloted some of our visual literacy assessments in classrooms. We’re using this invaluable student feedback to plan a large-scale effort, and we need your help!
The team is seeking partners from a variety of institutions to test assessments in their classrooms during Fall 2023 and Spring 2024. If you’re willing to help with this key step in our validation process, please fill out THIS BRIEF FORM.
BioMolViz Misconceptions Survey
Members of the BioMolViz community have identified BioMolecular Visualization areas in which students struggle or have misconceptions. We are seeking Biochemistry and Molecular Biology-based professors and instructors to participate in a research study designed to determine the prevalence of these challenges/misconceptions across institutions of higher education. We hope that, by better understanding these educational challenges, we can support instructional development that can minimize them.
Take the survey (15–20 minutes): https://utexas.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_5q1XoAWj21IGItw
2022 Summer Newsletter & Call for Field Testers
Several biomolecular visualization assessments from our workshops have been reviewed by an expert panel. Now, BioMolViz is seeking partners from a variety of institutions to test assessments at both the novice (beginner, typically students in introductory courses) and amateur (intermediate, typically students in upper-division courses) learner levels. If you are interested in partnering with BioMolViz to pilot visual literacy assessments in your classroom, please fill out this form.
