The Southampton Wave.

Abstract

The course planning team at Southampton University College of Midwifery wanted to offer a diploma course which reflected the realities of midwifery education in the clinical setting. For this a curriculum model--The Wave--was developed. The Wave is not a static model, but reflects the changes a midwifery curriculum must absorb in context and circumstances. Allocation of students to clinical areas is linked with course content, allowing direct application of theory to practice and practice to theory.

Myco-Ed: Mycological curriculum for education and discovery.

Fungi are important and hyperdiverse organisms, yet chronically understudied. Most fungal clades have no reference genomes, impeding our understanding of their ecosystem functions and use as solutions in health and biotechnology. Also, opportunities for training in fungal biology and genomics are lacking, creating a bottleneck that hinders the recruitment and cultivation of a talented future mycological workforce. To address these issues, we developed Myco-Ed, an educational program offering training and scientific contributions through genome sequencing and analysis. Myco-Ed empowers students to pursue careers in fungal biology while improving fungal resources. Myco-Ed has been piloted at 12 institutions (15 classrooms) ranging from online e-Campuses to R1 universities, resulting in hundreds of fungal observations and many new high-quality reference genomes.
