| Desc | XBIO: EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS FOR UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS THE MISSION OF THE EXPLORER'S GUIDE TO BIOLOGY (XBIO) IS TO CREATE A FREE LEARNING RESOURCE THAT EMPHASIZES THE WONDERS OF LIFE AND THE PROBLEM- SOLVING NATURE OF SCIENCE. MANY STUDENTS APPROACH BIOLOGY WITH INITIAL EXCITEMENT BUT LEAVE THEIR COURSE DISCOURAGED AFTER MEMORIZING A SEA OF FACTS. THE WONDER OF SCIENCE AND THE THRILL OF DISCOVERY ARE NOT BEING COMMUNICATED. XBIO'S AUDACIOUS GOAL IS TO RETHINK BIOLOGY EDUCATION BY OFFERING STUDENTS A MORE EXCITING AND ACCURATE WINDOW INTO THE LIFE SCIENCES. IN ADDITION, WE WANT TO OFFER STUDENTS A GREAT LEARNING EXPERIENCE FOR FREE, RECOGNIZING THE FINANCIAL BURDEN IMPOSED BY TEXTBOOK COSTS. OUR AMBITION IS TO HAVE STUDENTS LOVE LIFE, SCIENCE, AND LEARNING AS MUCH AS WE DO. | Desc |

| FORM 990 - ORGANIZATION'S MISSION | THE SCIENCE COMMUNIATION LAB'S MISSION IS TO CONVEY, IN THE FORM OF OPEN- ACCESS FREE VIDEOS,THE EXCITEMENT OF MODERN BIOLOGY AND THE PROCESS BY WHICH SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERIES ARE MADE. THE ORGANIZATION'S AIM IS TO INTRODUCE THE LEADING SCIENTISTS IN BIOLOGY, HOW THEY THINK ABOUT SCIENTIFIC QUESTIONS AND CONDUCT THEIR RESEARCH, AND MAKE KNOWN THEIR PERSONALITIES, OPINIONS, AND PERSPECTIVES. THE ORGANIZATION IS INNOVATING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF GRADUATE STUDENTS AND POSTDOCS THROUGH A SERIES OF COURSES THAT ADDRESS EXPERIMENTAL PLANNING, DESIGN, AND COMMUNICATION. THROUGH THEIR EXISTING VIDEO CONTENT AND A FAR-REACHING PROJECT SEEKING TO REIMAGINE AN INTRODUCTORY BIOLOGY TEXTBOOK, THEY ALSO ENDEAVOR TO SUPPORT EDUCATORS WHO WANT TO INCORPORATE MATERIALS THAT ILLUSTRATE THE PROCESS AND PRACTICE OF SCIENCE INTO THEIR CURRICULUM. THE SCIENCE COMMUNIATION LAB IS INCREASINGLY PRODUCING CONTENT FOR THE GENERAL PUBLIC THAT HIGHLIGHTS THE SPIRIT OF SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY, EXPANDS THE NOTION OF "WHO IS A SCIENTIST,- AND EXPLAINS KEY BREAKTHROUGHS AND CONCEPTS. THIS PROJECT IS MADE POSSIBLE BY THE GOOD WILL OF MANY BIOLOGISTS WHO ARE COMMITTED TO MAKING THEIR WORK BROADLY ACCESSIBLE AND TO CONVEYING THE EXCITEMENT OF BIOLOGY TO A WORLDWIDE AUDIENCE. |
| FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4A | IBIOLOGY: SEMINARS AND COURSES FOR LIFE SCIENCES IBIOLOGY IS A SCIENCE COMMUNICATION INITIATIVE FOCUSED ON IMPROVING THE FLOW OF KNOWLEDGE ABOUT NEW DISCOVERIES AND THE PROCESS OF RESEARCH. IT TRADITIONALLY CREATED CONTENT FOR THE PROFESSIONAL SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY, BUT NEW INITIATIVES INCLUDE SIGNIFICANT CONTENT FOR UNDERGRADUATE EDUCATION. IBIOLOGY ALSO PROVIDES TRAINING RESOURCES FOR EARLY-CAREER SCIENTISTS. USING VIDEO AS ITS PRIMARY MEDIUM, IBIOLOGY EXPERIMENTS WITH CONTENT, PRODUCTION AND DISTRIBUTION. IBIOLOGY WORKS WITH EDUCATORS TO DEVELOP VIDEOS WELL SUITED FOR CLASSROOM INSTRUCTION. AND IT WORKS WITH FILMMAKERS TO INNOVATE ON NEW STYLES OF SCIENCE VIDEOS. EVALUATING THE EFFICACY AND USEFULNESS OF THE VIDEOS IS CENTRAL TO IBIOLOGY'S MISSION. IBIOLOGY ALSO CREATES A SUITE OF INNOVATIVE ONLINE VIDEO COURSES ON PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT, RESEARCH TECHNIQUES, SCIENCE COMMUNICATION, MENTORSHIP, AND OTHERS. THE VIDEOS INCLUDE A DIVERSITY OF VOICES AND PERSPECTIVES, SHOWING STUDENTS THAT SCIENTISTS APPROACH THEIR WORK FROM A VARIETY OF BACKGROUNDS AND EXPERIENCES. |

MANY STUDENTS APPROACH BIOLOGY WITH INITIAL EXCITEMENT BUT LEAVE THEIR COURSE DISCOURAGED AFTER MEMORIZING A SEA OF FACTS. THE WONDER OF SCIENCE AND THE THRILL OF DISCOVERY ARE NOT BEING COMMUNICATED. XBIO'S AUDACIOUS GOAL IS TO RETHINK BIOLOGY EDUCATION BY OFFERING STUDENTS A MORE EXCITING AND ACCURATE WINDOW INTO THE LIFE SCIENCES. IN ADDITION, WE WANT TO OFFER STUDENTS A GREAT LEARNING EXPERIENCE FOR FREE, RECOGNIZING THE FINANCIAL BURDEN IMPOSED BY TEXTBOOK COSTS. OUR AMBITION IS TO HAVE STUDENTS LOVE LIFE, SCIENCE, AND LEARNING AS MUCH AS WE DO. |
