Endosomal sorting of VAMP2, -3 and -4 with Rab GTPases

C*-algebra seminar by Jordy Timo van Velthoven (University of Vienna)

Every second Tuesday, CBA members gather for lunch and a talk. On October 31st 2023, we have a presentation given by Joel White from the University of Gothenburg.

This is a half-day online workshop on the numerics and theory of conservation laws and fluid equations. Abstracts and Zoom link can be found here.

Børge Irgens: 

When moving away from lectures, ensuring students come to class prepared to do other activities can be challenging.

In this talk, I present a case from the third-semester course FYS-1001 Mechanics at the University of Tromsø, where I have implemented a technique called the Readiness Assurance Process using individual and collaborative two-stage tests to encourage students' pre-class preparation. Utilizing data on time spent on pre-class preparation and individual and group test scores, I assess the effectiveness of this teaching strategy in ensuring student readiness.

Additionally, by analyzing recordings of group discussions, I aim to explore the learning potential of the collaborative exam stage.
