Revision as of 09:38, 14 October 2014
We are aware that many students would be interested in participating but do not know about the iGEM comptetition for Highs Schools or are not sure about how to start a team. For them, the iGEM Paris Bettencourt 2014 team has developed an edX based MOOC (Massive Open Online Course).
Introduction
Historically, iGEM has been a competition for college students; however, recently, they have also started to involve high schools in the competition. Although the competition exists, there is low involvement from high schools across the world.
2) Bioethics at iGEM
2.1) Quick summary of history of bioethics concern in Synthetic Biology: Where did all the concerns about Synthetic Biology come from?
2.2) Data collection and sharing with the public: How to manage a database and private information of people?
2.3) Informed consent: What is informed consent? When do you need it? How to write an informed consent form?
2.4) Patentability: Can you patent your designed parts and devices for iGEM? Is patenting good for science?
2.5) Open access to research outcomes and concerns of bioterrorism: What is Open Access and which consequences can it have in the society?
2.6) Open discussion and bioethics education: How to allow a open discussion on bioethics within the iGEM team?
4) Human practices at iGEM
4.1) Advertising your iGEM project to the general public: How to advertise our iGEM project? What is the most effective way?
4.2) Measuring public opinion about your project: How can I conduct a survey measuring public concern regarding synthetic biology?
4.3) Science vulgarisation: presentations and meetings: How should I present my iGEM project to the general public?
4.4) Giving back to the community: As an iGEM team, what activities can we make to help the society?
4.5) Collaborations between iGEM teams
Mooc Course
The MOOC consists of videos of around 3 minutes of duration that explain these subjects:
1) Fundamental facts of Synthetic Biology:
1.1) What is Synthetic Biology and the Central Dogma of Biology: what do we call the Central Dogma of Biology.
1.2) Engineering parts and genetic devices: How a gene is regulated? How to create a genetic circuit?
1.3) DNA & biobricks design: How to use the biobrick database? Tricks and advice
1.4) A model organism: E. coli: How do you use your biological chassis?
1.5) Main basic techniques that are used in iGEM: How to go from in silicoto a plasmid
3) Science project managment at iGEM
3.1) Building a team: Human resources: How to build an iGEM team, where to find motivated people and how to select them?
3.2) Brainstorming: when ideas appear: How to brainstorm efficiently and select new ideas?
3.3) Choosing the project: from ideas to experiments: How build a good project?
3.4) Organizing the iGEM team: How to organize work and divide the tasks?
3.5) Funding options for iGEM teams: How to estimate the funding? What are the funding options? How to approach the potential funders?
3.6) The iGEM project wiki: What is a wiki? What should be in my wiki?
