Wistar Institute Interview
Problem-Based Learning

Remember to spark a passion for science and math among students, Dr. Wunner recommends:

“Take advantage of natural curiosity. Engage this with the simplest organisms in field studies. When students get to play the role of a chief scientific officer, for example, they are learning what people do in their jobs.”

Dr. Wunner Reflections...

“I do this because I believe in science. For me it’s a way of life, a pattern of life-long learning. There is always something new and I want to share my passion for this. If it helps teachers – or even one teacher - I’m just happy to give any useful insights I have.”
