Implication

Laboratory activity shows increased bacterial resistance levels through various antibiotic concentrations, indicating the significance of education on this health crisis.

Key Points

Eight-fold increases in bacterial resistance levels were commonly observed during a week-long lab activity.
Students learned basic microbiology techniques while engaging in a lab that demonstrated antibiotic resistance mechanisms.
The laboratory activity emphasizes the role of natural selection in the development of bacterial resistance to antibiotics.
Creating this experiential learning opportunity involved collaboration with undergraduate researchers to enhance educational outcomes.
