Abstract

An undergraduate hybrid genetic course has been unpopular. Students complained about self- learning content and that class was boring. Thus, the course was reimagined. A variety of methods used included individual and group quizzes, group assignments, interactive activities, videos and discussion. Most popular were guest presenters about their genetic conditions.
