Abstract
Abstract Apathy toward science in high school and college students has reached alarming proportions. The lack of scientific understanding and basic knowledge of biology is creating both health and economic crises in the United States. Traditionally, college science courses have been completely lecture-based. However, lecture-free teaching and active learning strategies engage students more successfully in the content and help students solidify content knowledge more effectively. Students also find these educational formats more enjoyable than lectures. Here, several low risk activities which force students to prepare content prior to its explanation in class are presented. In particular, the use of immediate-feedback assessment tool cards and student-led lectures in teaching immunology are detailed.
