Engage with SABER: Enhancing Inclusive Biology Education Research
The Alabama Academy of Science is excited to share opportunities for members interested in advancing biology education research. The Society for the Advancement of Biology Education Research (SABER) offers an array of initiatives aimed at fostering inclusive teaching and professional development in the field.
Biology Education Research Webinar Series
One of SABER’s key initiatives is the Biology Education Research Webinar Series, sponsored by Broaden SABER. This monthly series provides insights into inclusive teaching practices, with each webinar lasting one hour and followed by an optional 30-minute learning community discussion. These sessions are open to all, free of charge, and do not require registration.
The next seminar will take place on Thursday, March 20, at 11 AM CT. Attending these webinars, particularly participating in the learning communities, can lead to eligibility for a free SABER membership. Details can be found at saberbio.org/BER-seminar-series.
Opportunities Through Broaden SABER
SABER, through the Broaden SABER project, also offers:
- Travel Grants and Networking Support: For those interested in attending the SABER Annual Meeting (July 10–13, 2025, at the University of Minnesota – Twin Cities), these grants provide financial assistance to engage with leading researchers and educators in undergraduate biology education.
- Visiting Co-PI Initiative: This initiative funds on-campus seminars and workshops led by a co-PI from the Broaden SABER project at no cost to the hosting institution, allowing for direct engagement with cutting-edge research in biology education.
Stay Connected
To stay updated on these opportunities and more, we encourage you to join the SABER mailing list. Sign up using the SABER Interest Form to receive updates about programs, events, and research advancements.
We hope that members of the Alabama Academy of Science will take advantage of these valuable resources to further their engagement with the biology education research community!
