The First Review Folder
The modules in the First Review Folder, which include
seven new modules for Volume V, are in the second stage of the review
process. These modules have passed a preliminary review by the BioQUEST
Curriculum Consortium staff and are presented here for classroom testing
and evaluation.
Fieldtesting Materials in the First Review Folder
One of the goals of the Library review process is to provide
links between developers and potential users during the development process.
To this end, each member of the BioQUEST community is encouraged to become
part of the development and review process by examining and commenting
on newly submitted projects or by becoming a fieldtester for a specific
module.
We are currently seeking fieldtesters for the modules in
the First Review Folder section of The BioQUEST Library.
Each fieldtester of The BioQUEST Library agrees to conduct
in-depth trials of a particular module in their courses and to provide
BioQUEST with extensive feedback and evaluation of the module at the end
of the fieldtest period. Fieldtesters who do not already have a site license
may purchase a fieldtester’s license for the price of an individual license.
The fieldtesters license allows them to use the Library with their students
on multiple computers for a period of 1 year. Upon receipt of the fieldtest
report, fieldtesters will be given the opportunity to purchase a regular
site license for their institution or department at a 50% reduction from
the normal site license fee.
If you ar interested in becoming a BioQUEST fieldtester,
please contact us at the address below or visit our web site at http://bioquest.org.
