Over the years, the course style changed from traditional classroom teaching, with lectures on the concepts and demonstrations of exercise solutions, to more self-paced and interactive learning using the flipped-classroom method. The combination of studying the theory at one\u2019s own pace and applying it to self-designed projects has proven to be an effective way of learning. Thus, we wanted to share this experience and decided to write this book.\u201d<\/p><p><strong>What is the added value of this book?<\/strong><\/p><p>\u201cThis book is designed as resource for a flipped-classroom settings to allow students to study in their own speed. It opens an easy and self-paced way to study basic concepts of systems biology. In the flipped-classroom setting, teacher can shift their teaching from delivering content to explaining open questions and individual tutoring. In addition, each chapter comes with links to external videos, learning checklists, and examples to gain confidence in thinking across scientific perspectives.\u201d<\/p><p><strong>Who is concerned by this book?<\/strong><\/p><p>\u201cThe book is mainly for students and teachers in systems biology. But given the relatively simple examples being discussed, it can also be of interest for a broader audience who want to get a first deeper insight into systems biology.\u201d<\/p><p>The book is accessible online <a href=\"https:\/\/www.openbookpublishers.com\/books\/10.11647\/obp.0291\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">via this link<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Computational biologists from the University of Luxembourg have recently published the book \u201cIntroduction to systems biology: workbook for flipped-classroom teaching\u201d in order to facilitate the understanding of biochemical networks, metabolic modeling and system dynamics among students.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":803,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"featured_image_focal_point":[],"show_featured_caption":false,"ulux_newsletter_groups":"","uluxPostTitle":"","uluxPrePostTitle":"","_trash_the_other_posts":false,"_price":"","_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_header":"","_tribe_default_ticket_provider":"","_tribe_ticket_capacity":"0","_ticket_start_date":"","_ticket_end_date":"","_tribe_ticket_show_description":"","_tribe_ticket_show_not_going":false,"_tribe_ticket_use_global_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_global_stock_level":"","_global_stock_mode":"","_global_stock_cap":"","_tribe_rsvp_for_event":"","_tribe_ticket_going_count":"","_tribe_ticket_not_going_count":"","_tribe_tickets_list":"[]","_tribe_ticket_has_attendee_info_fields":false},"news-category":[3],"news-topic":[18],"organisation":[95,24],"authorship":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.3 (Yoast SEO v22.3) -
