JoinThe Case of the Druid Dracula: A Directed "Clicker" Case Study on DNA Fingerprinting
This article describes how case studies have been successfully implemented in an introductory biology course of 300+ students using available technologies ranging from WebCT, used to assign students to permanent small groups (as well as assign groups to regions of a larger lecture hall), to hand-held response systems (aka "clickers"), which students use to collaboratively solve cases during class.
