Database of global teaching examplesIncluding
multinational examples in BSEN courses will increase their global
relevance and enhance the learning experience of the students.
After we design the database structure, we will develop a format for
describing a multinational example. We will then solicit examples
from academic staff / faculty of our partner departments; the examples
will be submitted in the given format. We will then enter the examples
into the database which will be made accessible through the project
website. Of particular interest are examples that illustrate the
variability and similarity of global issues with respect to geography,
climate, political system, culture, and other characteristics.
Examples might include:
- Environmental transport, e.g. pollutant transfer in dessert, Mediterranean, humid temperate and frozen environments
- Applications of fermentation processes, e.g. beverage production, biofuels and food safety
- Food safety processes and procedures, e.g. standards and processes for maintaining food chain integrity
- Bioenergy: production, conversion, environmental impact
- Biosensors
and/or bioinstrumentation to assess biological processes including
plant and crop health, and animal health and welfare.
