Abstract

SimBio’s inquiry-driven teaching tools are popular in biology courses that emphasize experimentation and discovery. In this presentation, we will demonstrate how SimBio’s SimUText System® lets you mix and match SimBio’s interactive tutorial/labs with chapters from an OpenStax Biology e-text to build an inexpensive active-learning replacement for your traditional Intro Bio textbook. We will be happy to brainstorm with participants on their particular teaching challenges!
