Abstract	The goal of the work reported here was to help students expand their understanding of antibiotic resistance, the Central Dogma, and evolution. We developed a unit entitled "Ciprofloxacin Resistance in "Neisseria gonorrhoeae,"" which was constructed according to the principles of scientific teaching by a team of graduate students, science faculty, and instructors. A variety of activities and assessments were used, including a case study, short lectures, and group problem-solving. Implementation of "Ciprofloxacin Resistance in "Neisseria gonorrhoeae"" in a college freshman seminar suggests these materials are useful in increasing understanding of complex biological topics and improving problem-solving abilities. (Contains 5 tables and 1 figure.) (As Provided).
