As an educator working to reform introductory undergraduate courses, I was perplexed by B. Alberts's announcement about a Science prize for inquiry-based lab modules (“A new college Science prize,” Editorial, 7 January, p. [10][1]). Given that inquiry modules are readily available in a variety of excellent, peer-reviewed resources ([ 1 ][2]–[ 6 ][3]), students' inexperience with this lesson format is likely not due to lack of access to such materials. The persistent deficiencies in college science teaching discussed in the Editorial point to a problem much larger than availability of inquiry modules. Real transformation, as outlined in the recent AAAS Vision and Change “call to action,” for example ([ 7 ][4]), requires much more than inquiry teaching. For instance, faculty need to assess how well students entering a course can apply scientific thinking to questions about major concepts, and then assess whether such critical thinking skills improve after instruction. In my view, faculty who teach truly transformed science courses, as defined by elements such as these, deserve the honors. 1. [↵][5]The National Science Digital Library ([nsdl.org][6]). 2.
