MicrobéMon is like Pokémon with microbes! This innovative project asks students to choose a microbe relevant to their interests and to research its structure and properties. The goal? To create a microbial trading card for use in a final showdown, where students demonstrate their understanding of their “villain” (pathogen) or “hero” (beneficial microbe) by predicting how it will survive or be defeated when exposed to various environmental insults. With the goal of teaching students how to use Artificial Intelligence (AI) ethically and to fact-check scientific information against peer-reviewed sources, the project is run in carefully guided phases and includes explicit requirements for transparent use of AI and for documenting specifically where each piece of information was found in a book or journal article. The process and outcomes of a preliminary run of this project will be presented, and advice is sought on improvements and useful measurement metrics for its effectiveness.
