The course is designed to provide, in microcosm, the experience of
teaching an entire course. Dissertator-level PhD students will prepare
and deliver a graduate-level lecture(s) in Biochemistry 660.
Biochemistry 660 is taken by all incoming IPiB students, as well as
students in other programs. The student lecturer will cover a method with which
the student has hands-on experience, and combines theory and practice.
Students receive extensive feedback, both before and after the lecture,
from a variety of sources. The student lecturers also participate in
the design of the course, evaluation of lectures, and the design of
problem sets.
Participation is voluntary. One semester credit of 799 fulfills the equivalent of one required advanced seminar presentation, excluding the outside seminar presentation and the research progress seminar. If a student participates in 660 more than one time, the additional semesters of participation can fulfill the requirement for Continuous Seminar Enrollment, but additional semesters of 799/660 do NOT satisfy the requirement for additional advanced seminar presentations (3.3.2). Enrollment requires consent of instructor.
Meetings with Marv:
These are the dates and times for your (first) meeting with me. If necessary, we will meet again.
At these meetings, you should have:
- a power point draft of your talk
- a print out of your recommended reading (a short review is appropriate)
- a draft of your problem set question
