*Project Participants* The project will be carried out by a collaboration of U.S. and international physiology educators from diverse institutions. The Project Team along with additional senior personnel (Penny Hansen, Memorial University, St. Johns, Newfoundland; Robert Carroll, East Carolina University School of Medicine, Greenville, NC; and Nancy Pelaez, California State University, Fullerton) will recruit an additional 10-15 colleagues, aiming for wide institutional and geographical distribution, to form a Core Development Group (CDG) for the project. The CDG members will attend the IUPS Teaching Workshop organized by the Education Committee of the IUPS in April 2005. The rationale for including international physiologists in the core development group and for coordinating with the IUPS Teaching Workshop is to solicit the widest possible input from potential users. Many international physiologists have the content expertise to provide scientific accuracy while simultaneously being able to ensure that the activities developed are suitable for resource-poor teaching environments. Activities that are useful to our international colleagues should have widespread applicability for teaching in high schools and community colleges. The project will proceed in three phases. There will be an activity selection phase that occurs prior to the Teaching Workshop. The production phase of activities will begin at the Workshop. Following the Workshop, the CDG will complete the work of developing and editing activities. In the third phase, completed activities will be published and advertised. Questions concerning the project participants can be addressed to Project Team member, Dee Silverthorn. |
