Abstract for the conference program
We designed two courses around the isolation, identification and characterization of phages that are present in dirt and water-dwelling bacteria. Phages, also known as bacteriophages, are viruses that infect bacteria. The two courses target undergraduate biological and environmental science students who are chosen to become K-12 educators. In addition, a modified research protocol was designed for implementation in K-12 classrooms.
