      If you have an interest in creating an active learning environment in your classroom, but don't know where to start...

If you need ideas about how to approach a topic or set of topics in physiology...

If you are interested in helping students think in terms of general models (common themes) in physiology, but aren't sure how to proceed...

Call or e-mail us. We're happy to help.

  Hosting a Workshop or Short Course  
     
      PERC members can be contracted to come to your campus to run faculty development workshops on a variety of topics. Each of these topics could serve as the focus of a short introductory workshop (2-4 hours) or serve as the theme for an intensive multi-day short course. Please see the list of  past workshops and short courses for examples. For more information, contact:
