Transcript
MICRO20: 1) Students will successfully perform and interpret a Gram stain, compare and contrast the structures of Gram-negative and Gram-positive cell walls, and address why each stains differently with a Gram stain. 2) Students will apply the key concepts in the course by designing a brochure or poster for an infectious disease or immune system disorder. 3) Students will identify an unknown bacterium using laboratory skills learned in the course. Assessment & Rubrics: 1. A bacterial unknown identification will scored on a scale of 1 to 3 using a rubric addressing the following criteria: quality of the Gram stain itself, correct interpretation of the Gram stain. A common exam question to be used in all microbiology courses will be assessed on a scale of 1 to 5 using a rubric addressing the following criteria: accuracy of Gram-negative and Gram-positive cell wall structure, accuracy of Gram stain procedure, understanding the basis of differential Gram staining. 2. A disease brochure or poster will be scored on a scale of 1 to 5 for each of the following criteria on a rubric: description of pathogen & risk factors, mechanism of disease, signs & symptoms, diagnosis & treatment, disease prevention, quality of writing & presentation. 3. A bacterial unknown identification will scored on a scale of 1 to 3 using a rubric addressing the following criteria: quality of staining and interpretation of morphology & arrangement, determination of motility, growth characteristics, biochemical testing, narrative and conclusions, quality of writing and presentation. The criteria will be analyzed based on a scale of 100% to 0%. The results of responses to each criterion will be examined independently. The following scale is established: Excellent: 90-100%; Satisfactory: 70-89%; Unacceptable: <70% 1-24-14 1
