Welcome to Bio Nuggets! My mission is to make the complexities of the living world fun and easy to understand. One's interest in biology cannot transform into a passion through the traditional "lecturing" academic curriculum taught in schools. With a little guidance, it is very possible to admire the story of life on Earth. After spending many years in the educational system, I have come to realize a few sad realities. To make complex material digestible in a short period of time, colleges and high schools have sacrificed the conceptual aspect of science and instead emphasized memorization of fundamental processes and steps.In my eyes, this is a very counter-intuitive strategy; if conceptual science was taught and the flow of the topic was understood, then it would be a simple task to assign names to each exciting idea.Instead, what happens in classrooms is that professors teach the names of each process and leave it to the student to understand the "big picture" mechanism. Imagine you want to teach someone how to build a car. There are two ways to do this; first, you can tell them to build a car after teaching them the function of each part individually (traditional education). Alternatively, you can ask them to take apart a car, discover the function of each part as they break down the car, and then use this knowledge to build a newer (and better) model. The latter case is much more productive and exciting. While the former is an efficient way to teach complex material, it robs students of the opportunity to admire these subjects.Consequently, us students emerge from schools as masters of memorization with a complete apathy or disgust for the material taught to us, not to mention a lack of understanding in general. Through BioNuggets, it is my goal to turn this system around and make biology appear as wondrous as it really is. After all, what is more exciting than learning about the most complex machinery on the planet?
