This symposium will focus on teaching innovations and educational research related to the biochemistry laboratory learning environment. The biochemistry laboratory is a unique environment where students must synthesize learning from many courses (e.g., chemistry, biology, physics) and attain a high level of representational competence to be successful. Because of its interdisciplinary nature, the biochemistry laboratory can provide students a context in which to grow and develop their understanding of a variety of scientific concepts and practices. The purpose of this symposium is to provide a forum for educators to present their work in shaping biochemistry laboratory learning environments. We invite all biochemistry laboratory educators to share their work, with an eye toward highlighting pedagogies that emphasize active learning and inclusive teaching strategies. Speakers are encouraged to include some form of assessment results (e.g., surveys, exam questions, interviews) in their presentation.
