To accommodate educators' schedules, this workshop will be offered twice. Workshop content will be the same at both sessions.

  • Session One: Wednesday, April 6, 6:30–8:30 PM EASTERN 
  • Session Two: Wednesday, May 25, 4:00–6:00 PM EASTERN

Note that the workshop time is in US Eastern time zone. Please verify the corresponding time in your local area.

During this workshop, participants will engage in an interactive, data-driven discussion of The Biology of Skin Color by exploring free BioInteractive resources including a short film, a Phenomenal Image, and a variety of hands-on, student-driven activities. In addition, these activities may help address the common misconception that race has a biological basis.
