Se trata de material preparado por profesores de varias universidades iberoamericanas con el objeto de facilitar la docencia y el estudio de la bioquímica, la biotecnología y la biología molecular. Se trata de un manual tutelado e interactivo con un doble objetivo: aportar nuevas herramientas a los profesores y ayudar a los estudiantes a aprender practicando, así como a practicar con los conceptos. Entre sus contenidos destacan los modelos moleculares tridimensionales informatizados (para comprender más fácilmente la estructura de las biomoléculas), textos multimedia, esquemas animados y ejercicios con autoevaluación. El proyecto está promovido desde el Grupo de Enseñanza de la Sociedad Española de Bioquímica y Biología molecular. En su octava edición (BioROM2010) han participado 31 autores de 19 universidades en 5 países, proporcionando un total de 634 MB de contenidos multimedia.SoftwareMethodology and gradingMethodologyCooperative learning: Develop active learning through cooperative working strategies among students and promote shared responsibility to reach group goals.Problem-based learning: Develop active learning strategies through problem solving that promote thinking, experimentation, and decision making in the student.Solving exercises and problems: Exercise, test, and apply previous knowledge through routine repetition.GradingEvaluación continuada sobre los trabajos teóricos-prácticos a lo largo del curso: 30% de la nota final. Examen final con preguntas tipo test sobre la materia aprendida y trabajada en las clases teóricas 70% de la nota final. Es necesario aprobar los 2 módulos para superar la materia.
