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
