"Teaching microbiology" vs. "learning microbiology".
Microbiology is great! Our challenge is to convey that excitement to our students and to stimulate them to actively pursue knowledge about microbiology. Their future will be loaded with microbial issues, ranging from safety of the hamburgers they eat to the appropriateness of the therapies for their diseases. Thus it is critical that all of our students develop problem-solving skills in microbiology. In this article, I discuss ideas about current challenges, as well as opportunities, related to teaching and learning about microbiology.
