Class Schedule Genetics and Molecular Biology for Teachers (SMFT 639) Don’t print this page…just visit it every time you visit the course web page! Because of the collaborative and discussion/activity-based nature of this class, this course schedule is an “evolving” one! I cannot predict how deeply we will want to explore and discuss the concepts addressed in this course, nor can I predict difficulties, or misconceptions you may have throughout the semester. As a result, we may find it necessary to spend more time on a topic than originally planned. So visit the syllabus at least 1-2 days before EVERY class to see where we are in the course, and your responsibilities for preparing for that day’s class. HOMEWORK DUE DATES column shows the day homework/project assignments are due. READINGS in BLACK TEXT are to be read before the start of that day’s class. READINGS in RED TEXT may be read following the activities for that day’s class. RATs will generally be over the reading assigned for that day’s class, or concepts from the prior classes!
