Swafford discussed how she converted her in-person General Biology presentations into interactive Google Slides lessons for use in online asynchronous classes. Swafford covered not only how the lessons are structured but also what her students like about them.
During the conference, she was elected to serve as the association鈥檚 first secretary.
鈥淭his is also the first time the association has had an elected leadership board. In the past, NC3ABI has been managed by employees of NC BioNetwork, so there鈥檚 never been an official president, vice president, etc.,鈥� Swafford said. 鈥淚鈥檝e been involved in NC3ABI since 2016, so it鈥檚 exciting to be a part of this change.鈥�
