This journal focuses on teaching evolution K-16. Articles include research, pedagogy, policy, current events and lessons. Content is available free online.
This site has lesson plans and general information about evolution, the nature of science, origin of life and genetics.
This collection of essays and evolution-focused activities was designed by BSCS to accompany the 2004 Evolutionary Science and Society: Educating a New Generation symposium.
This site has a collection of lessons and resources from educators on a variety of topics.
This series covers various aspects of evolution. The web site has resources for educators and students, including video clips, lessons, and interactive activities.
This site is for students and teachers, grades 6-12, and includes articles, lesson plans and general information. Specific lessons of interest in relation to the symposium include:
This tutorial clarifies how the process of development helps us understand how some major evolutionary changes occurred and why others did not. AP biology/college-level.
This interactive module delves into the evolutionary history of eyes, addressing developmental genetics in the process. AP Biology/college level.
This interactive investigation explains what homologies and analogies are, how to recognize them, and how they evolve.
This article reviews five examples of analogy, including similar structures in barnacles and limpets, sharks and dolphins, anteaters and echidnas, and more. Middle school/high school level.
This news brief describes the convergent evolution of lactose tolerance in humans and the genetic changes that enabled it. High school/college level.
This tutorial delves into our current understandings of the origins of life and how scientists are able to investigate the details of such ancient events. AP biology/college-level.
This tutorial deals with symbiotic relationships among ancient microbes—and how this changed the course of evolution. AP biology/college-level.
