Historical Programs
SPIKE
Semester-long partnerships between elementary or middle school teachers and SFSU science undergraduate and graduate students.
HHMI Biology FEST
HHMI Biology FEST is a multi-pronged faculty development program that will enhance San Francisco State Biology faculty pedagogical expertise, provide support for iteratively changing their teaching, engage faculty in regular discussions of student assessment evidence, and build infrastructure to support comprehensive curricular reform in the future.
CCB FEST
CCB FEST brings together current and aspiring SF Bay Area community college biology instructors to build professional community, learn from one another, and explore scientific teaching and innovative approaches to integrating active learning, assessment, equity, and classroom research into community college biology teaching.
Spectrum
The Spectrum program was a community of women of color in the biomedical sciences. The program worked to bring together women scientists of all ages together — SFSU undergraduate students, SFSU Masters students, SFSU alumni in local doctoral and biotechnology positions, SFSU Faculty, and middle and high school students and teachers. SFSU Spectrum scientists collaborated to learn and share their knowledge about the biology behind women’s health issues and the research being conducted by women biomedical researchers of color.
