Themed Groups
The Centre for Bioscience has supported a number of Special Interest Groups
(SIGs) and Network Groups over the years. These aimed to encourage discussion and exchange of information
surrounding various learning and teaching issues from a bioscience perspective. Group
members had the opportunity to exchange experiences, identify and develop
good practices that will be both themselves and the wider bioscience community.

Network Groups
Network Groups are united by a common interest in a theme or topic. Historically, within
the group, members communicated via a common e-mail list. These lists had been inactive for some time and were archived in July 2011. Resources compiled by the groups contain to be available via the Centre's website and can be accessed via the relevant links below.
Biomaths (Numeracy and mathematical literacy)
This group was run by the Centre in conjunction with Dr Vicki
Tariq (University of Central Lancashire). The jiscmail list of the group was no longer active and was archived in July 2011. Information relating to student
numeracy is still available from the numeracy section of our website.
Employability
The email list of this group is no longer active and has been archived. Information and resources are available from the Employability
Section of our website.
Practical work in the Biosciences
This network covered both fieldwork and laboratory-based practicals.
The email list of the group was no longer active and has been archived. Further information, resources and practical-based references are available
from the Practical Work section of our website.
Problem Based Learning
The Problem Based Learning group is no longer active and the associated jiscmail list has been archived. A list of selected pbl resources compiled by the group is available.
