This activity explores images of tree growth in the Serengeti over time, which serve as a phenomenon for learning about and modeling species interactions in ecosystems.

This case study follows a 2020 COVID-19 outbreak on a cruise ship to highlight how control measures like lockdown impact disease spread.

In this activity, students investigate the phenomenon of lactase persistence by making sense of a series of data sets.

In this collaborative activity, students explore major biodiversity threats and design, present, and refine solutions for preserving biodiversity.

This case study follows the 2019 measles epidemic in Samoa to highlight how vaccination impacts disease spread.

In this activity, students engage in key science practices that scientists used to figure out ecosystem dynamics in the Serengeti.

This activity guides students through learning and using key scientific terms, culminating in the creation of a customizable diagram.
 

This activity provides three sets of cards that can be used to reflect on the nature and dimensions of science.
 

In this activity, students evaluate a science news article to determine whether it is a trustworthy source of information.

In this activity, students find a scientist with whom they can relate in some way and then explore and reflect upon the impact of that scientist’s work.

In this hands-on activity, students build a paper model to explore how CRISPR-Cas9 is used to edit genes.

In this activity, students build a paper model of DNA and use their model to explore key structural features of the DNA double helix. This activity can be used to complement the short film The Double Helix.
