A digital technology‐based introductory biology course designed for engineering and other non‐life sciences STEM majors

Abstract: STEM education reform stresses the importance of a comprehensive understanding of science fundamentals and the development of science and engineering practices. As such, many engineering students must complete a core set of courses, including biology; however, this course is often designed for life sciences majors. One solution to this mismatch is to create an introductory biology course targeted to non‐biology STEM majors that introduces students to biology through a computational lens. Avida‐ED is a digital … Show more

“…The arrival of the Internet 2.0 era has made people live more concretely in a digital situation, and the iterative upgrading of digital technology has deeply intervened in the human community and pushed it towards digitization-, digital urbanity, algorithmic socialization, and big data-ism, which form the three constituent elements of the community [1][2]. Digital people born in the digital era and the transitional people in traditional society, the two groups together constitute the network of actors in today's digital society, in which the two actors play with each other for the people who have to enter the digital era, facing the pain of transition from traditional people to digital people, on the one hand, the race to revolution in the age of artificial intelligence has made our social life to be comprehensively empowered by the machine, and we have to face reality, and on the other hand there is a certain resistance to enter the digital age [3][4][5].…”
