Biology
• Nutrition (health and medicine), • Photosynthesis (farming and agriculture and
environmental) • Human body (medicine and health) • Forensics (law enforcement), genetics (law
enforcement- used in modern medicine) • Ecology (farming, conservation),
Earth Science
• Ecology( farming, conservation), Stratification(oil and exploration), meteorology( daily weather), astronomy(NASA exploration)
Biology
• Punnett square (genetic traits that might be passed on) nutrition (human body, social issues, obesity/ eating disorder, carcinogens in food, and how it effects the body) Ecology (agriculture, how conservations of the animal and plants change our world,Genetics (to find out the traits that might be dominant in family)carcinogens causes cancer, etc, how it impacts the bodyit does tie it all together
Earth Science
stratification (for oil and gas exploration) astronomy (how to find the constellations)
Meteorology- (understand the weather) (weather patterns, global warming, and what
to wear outside everyday) Ecology (agriculture (why we are concerned with saving our environment and the green movement)
3) What are ways to bring new forms of technology (not just PowerPoint's and TV’s) into the classroom for students
Skype- get experts into the classroom Mind maps- organize thoughts
Smart board- great tool Websites- NASA , USGs, Census
Scientific method- like Andrew had mentionedClickers- classroom votes
You tube- ways to show experiments 3D programs
Second life
Earth science- space exploration
Metrology- daily log of the weatherBiology- humanitarian efforts
Biology- a plant project Genetics- GMO/GMP
Biology- environmentalism, composting
5) What challenges do you anticipate in having students take part in a long term, student
centered project?
