TABLE 4.

Selected student responses to open-ended question on what they learned from module.

What was the most important thing you learned from the microbes and industry (yogurt) module?
Student 1 I had a much better understanding on how CRISPR arrays works and how CRISPR is prevalent in common things and not just in a lab. if that makes sense.
Student 2 “The most important thing I learned was the mechanism of CRISPR, as I had learned about CRISPR in other science classes but never learned where it came from and exactly how it works, which could be crucial as it appears the age of genetic modification is inevitable.”
Student 3 “How we can analyze the CRISPR loci to determine viruses that have infected yogurt bacteria and how this might give insight to how it affects our health and which kind of yogurt we consume.”
Student 4 “That commercial yogurt is ‘vaccinated’ against a wide variety of phages in order to resist more attacks.”
