Way Of Teaching And Learning

This week, our group has chosen the way of learning through e-learning and also Online learning. E-Learning stands for Electronic Learning meaning that it is a learning system based on formal teaching but with the help of electronic resources while Online learning only uses online media or the internet in learning. The reason why we use this way of learning is that it is one of the most frequently used methods after a pandemic and it has become a new normal in the learning process with which the whole country began to use it. Besides, this way of learning is also more effective which is more freedom that allows the student to study at their own time and study anywhere, with no restriction on areas and at the same time they still can remain in contact with their teacher.


LESSON PLAN 

COURSE CODE: BIO460

CHAPTER 3 :BACTERIOPHAGE LIFE CYCLE

 

TERMS

POINT

Learner

Science student in Kuantan 

Purpose


  1. To gain students’ understanding regarding virus discovery.

 

  1. To introduce and explain virus components and shape.

 

  1. To teach the student about characteristics of a bacteriophage.

 

  1. To allow the students to acknowledge the contrast between bacteriophage lytic and lysogenic life cycle.

Course/content

At the end of lesson,

1. Students should be able to know the contribution of scientists in the discovery of viruses.

       I. Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek (1632 – 1723) - Contributions toward the establishment of microbiology as a scientific discipline.

     II. Louis Pasteur (1822 – 1895) - Contribution on discoveries of the principles of vaccination, microbial fermentation and pasteurization.

    III. Heinrich Hermann Robert Koch (1843 – 1910) - Identified the specific causative agents of tuberculosis, cholera, and anthrax and also gave experimental support for the concept of infectious disease.

    IV. Charles Chamberland (1851 – 1908) - Invented a porcelain water filter in 1884.

     V. Dmitri Ivanovsky (1892) - Concluded that the bacteria was so small.

    VI. Martinus Beijerink - Discovered that the agent cannot be cultivated on nutrient media (need a host)

  VII. Wendell Meredith Stanley (1935) - Crystallization.

2.  Students should be able to introduce and explain virus components and shapes:

         I. Glycoproteins.

         II. Envelope.

         III. Capsid.

         IV. Single/ Double stranded DNA/RNA.

         V. Helical.

         VI. polyhedral/ Icosahedral.

         VII.Complex combination ( helical and polyhedral).

         VIII. Spherical shape

 

3.  Students should be able to describe the characteristics of a bacteriophage

           I. Non-life

                   -They are acellular, with no cell nucleus, organelles or cytoplasm.

                    -It cannot move and reproduce on their own.

           II.        Life

       -They only reproduce within the living cells that they infect.

                    -Use their genetic information to force the host cell to replicate.

 

4.  Students should be able to explain bacteriophage life cycle.

      I.        Lytic cycle.

         - The virus destroys the host cell.

     II.        Lysogenic cycle.

         -The viral genome usually becomes integrated into the host cell.


           

Method of instruction

Online learning and e-learning

Online learning and e-learning are used because schools are temporarily closed due to Covid-19 pandemic. Students are having online distance learning (odl) at home.

Technology

Google meet 

  • The teacher and the students make the live lessons
  • Two way-learning can be achieved (teacher can ask student question regarding to the lessons topic and student can ask teacher to be more understand)
  • For the best result, the internet connection should be strong
  • The teacher records the meeting
  • The purpose is to give the student who has the internet problem during the live lessons to watch it again when the internet connection is stable enough.
  • The teacher can also watch it again and detect if the lessons have any misinformation or not.

 

Google classroom 

  • Teacher can put the recorded lecture 
  • Student can use it for study to face the examination
  • Give the opportunity to the students to be more understanding when they watch it again.
  • Teacher prepares the homework or assignment for the students
  • The teacher can set the due date for any assignment at the space that the students need to submit it. 
  • Any kind of assignment are available to be submitted in this application such as videos, slides, reports and paperwork

 

Kahoot/quizizz/google form 

  • Test the student understanding
  • The teacher needs to inform the student early to make them be more prepared for the quiz except for the pop quiz.
  • Teachers can detect which students are not mastered yet for any topic that had been taught.

Assessment 

One-sentence summary 

  • To demonstrate whether or not students are able to understand concepts .
  • Example : ask the question “Who? When? Does what? Where ? Why? How?”
  • Do this assessment with a discussion forum or in a group so that it can make the online environment fairly easy to engage students especially among the peers.

 

Set up a quiz and test 

  • Set some essay question type and be available for 1-3 minutes 
  • For example : “ what is the type of bacteriophage life cycle and explain the process”

Can make revisions to teaching materials to address areas that students did not cover in the question.
