The BioMolViz Framework is a guide for biomolecular visualization (BMV) instruction. Designed and amended by teams of biochemistry and molecular biology instructors, the Framework divides visual literacy into 12 Overarching Themes. Each theme is subdivided into several broad learning goals, which are further partitioned into a series of specific learning objectives. The objectives describe discrete tasks for the BMV learner to accomplish. By considering the Overarching Theme, learning goals, and objectives, instructors can create BMV assessments using backward design, considering their course aims in the design process. Likewise, the BMV learner can utilize the Framework to guide their own learning by exploring the BMV topics and skills instructors consider key for development of visual literacy. | The BioMolViz Framework is a guide for biomolecular visualization (BMV) instruction.
