Evolution and the Environment: Activities for the Classroom 2005
This CD contains a set of engaging activities that align with the 2005 Evolution Symposium organized by BSCS, AIBS, and NABT, which brought together leading experts and provided science teachers with a general review of the philosophical issues surrounding the teaching of evolution and a broad update on current evolutionary science content related to the environment.
This CD contains a compilation of six major sections and 12 complete classroom activities, including copymasters. Evolution and the Environment: Activities for the Classroom 2005 brings to life the intimate relationship between evolution and the environment.
