American Biology Teacher Volume 85: Issue 1, January 2023 ***______{For Hard Copy, Please visit Library.}________*** Abstract: One of the important mechanisms in cancer cell metastasis is the cellular function of a specific cell type called myofibroblast cells. Myofibroblast cells are unique cell types that play an important role in the cancer cell microenvironment. As a step toward integrating the latest peer-reviewed cancer research findings into a general biology remote learning setting, we developed an innovative guest speaker talk to engage first-year undergraduates to develop a prediction on tumor microenvironment. In our article, we describe integrated remote approaches using Jamboard and reflective mentoring to validate and reflect on undergraduate team responses within an inclusive and equitable framework. These teaching and mentoring strategies provide a framework for senior undergraduates to be transformative role model scholars that inspire the next generation of Latinx and Native American undergraduates in important topics related to health and environment and the process of science for general biology undergraduates. inclusion| equity| myofibroblast| process of inquiry| cancer microenvironment| reflective mentoring Kao, Robert M. https://doi.org/10.1525/abt.2023.85.1.12 PER 0 0 0 0 RIEBPL RIEBPL 2024-04-09 0 2024-04-09 09:38:44 2024-04-09 PER 45650 45649
