The Biotechnology Study Program of the Department of Applied Sciences, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, State University of Malang, held a co-teaching session for the Bioinformatics course (BIOTUM6131) on June 6, 2024, with Assoc. Prof. Dr. Fatimah Binti Hashim as the guest lecturer. The event took place at Lecture Building A19, 1st floor, and was attended by biotechnology program students and those interested in bioinformatics.
This activity focuses on the use of Biorender application for creating effective visualizations of biochemical mechanisms or visualizing research methods and results. The session begins with an introduction to Biorender, covering its usage, benefits, and ease of utilizing this web-based software. After the presentation, students are encouraged to practice hands-on by creating Biorender accounts and attempting to visualize topics related to their research or understanding of biotechnology.
This co-teaching activity, through BioRender training, is expected to continually enhance students’ understanding through visualizations of micro- and nano-scale materials commonly found in biotechnology education. This activity can support the achievement of SDGs No. 4, which aims to improve quality education, and No. 17, fostering collaboration to achieve common goals. After the activity, participants took a group photo with the facilitators.
