About this film
BioBuilder® is a resource for hands-on activities and informative animations on synthetic biology, and a place to discuss the challenge of engineering biological systems. In 20.020, several BioBuilder animations are used as learning materials in the weekly classroom and lab activities. The full set of animations are posted below for reference. In addition to these animations, the BioBuilder website (http://www.biobuilder.org/) includes these other synthetic biology resources. * A sequence of introductory Bioprimer activities * For teachers, detailed instructor's notes and supporting materials to help you bring BioBuilder into your classroom * For students, a structured sequence of synthetic biology labs and assignments Animations: BioBuilder is populated with short, animated narratives, mostly showing the interaction between a lab scientist, Systems Sally, and an excited young learner, Device Dude. Their brainstorming sessions at the whiteboard and in the laboratory teach topics relevant to synthetic biology. View the complete course at: http://ocw.mit.edu/20-020S09
