摘要

In this work, we describe the partnership between a K-12 teacher, a GK-12 graduate student, and a Louisiana Tech faculty member collaborating in a research and education project for 6 weeks. Tanya Culligan (NanoResearcher), pairs with Katherine Bearden(Teaching Fellow), a doctoral student in Chemical Engineering, and Dr. Daniela Mainardi (Research Mentor), an assistant professor of Chemical Engineering and Nanosystems Engineering at Louisiana Tech. Culligan is assigned the task of exploring the location of the active site of a very important enzyme: Particulate Methane Monooxygenase (pMMO), which relates to environmental bio-catalysis and involves atmospheric methane consumption (oxidation) for the production of fuel (methanol). With the guidance of the Research Mentor, the help of the Teaching Fellow, and the use of scientific software with great visualization capabilities, Culligan is driven through the different steps needed to take to accomplish her goals. By the end of the 6-week program, the K-12 teacher develops a module, with the aid of her Research Mentor, to take and implement in her biology classes to explain the concept of the research she conducted on the modeling of enzymes. A description of the program, research project, and collaboration benefits is provided.
