We’re looking for educators with diverse backgrounds and teaching contexts who are committed to centering equity in their classrooms.
This activity guides the analysis of a published scientific figure from a study that explored inbreeding depression in a small, isolated population of wolves.
This video follows germplasm bank coordinator Cristian Zavala Espinosa and geneticist Sarah Hearne, who are part of the global effort to preserve the genetic diversity of maize (corn).
In this inquiry-based activity, students investigate the phenomenon of fur colors in rock pocket mice to connect genotypes to phenotypes and molecular genetics to evolution.
This activity guides the analysis of a published scientific figure from a study that explored the evolutionary origins of parasitic beetles that mimic army ants.
This activity guides the analysis of a published scientific figure from a study that investigated how gene duplication contributed to the evolution of electric fish.
This activity explores images of planarians regenerating missing body parts, which serve as phenomena for learning about cell division and differentiation.
This data-driven activity accompanies the video Selection for Tuskless Elephants. It engages students in analyzing data to make evidence-based claims about the occurrence of tusklessness in elephant populations.
This interactive module explores the biology of sex determination and development in humans, set against the backdrop of the different sex testing policies implemented throughout sports history.
This activity guides the analysis of a published scientific figure from a study that used SNP genotyping to identify the mutations that result in morphological differences in stickleback fish.
