Instructor and curriculum designer for the Human Body and Disease course for the Accelerated Learning Program. Program dates are June 29- July 18, 2025. The instructor’s main role in the program is to design curriculum and be a teacher and a facilitator of learning. Instructors can expect to work with a class size of up to 16 high school students. Course description listed below:

Humans are made up of trillions of cells which make up the tissues and organs of our body. What happens when these cells are attacked and damaged by bacteria, viruses, or even our own bodies? Throughout this course students will explore the answers to this question first by gaining an understanding of the human body on both a micro and macro level. Beginning with an overview of human anatomy and physiology, students will probe the nature of disease with new understandings about genetics, pathology, and epidemiology. Students will also get the opportunity to learn this material through hands-on activities such as dissections, individual research, and group case based learning. They will then learn how this knowledge can be applied in a variety of different careers.


Instructors are responsible for:
- Developing (or modifying) an engaging course with activities and lessons designed to provide high quality and fast-paced learning for advanced high school students.
- Developing curriculum following Badger Precollege templates and process (Complete Syllabus including course information, weekly schedule, daily lesson plans, presentation slides, and materials.)
