Exploring the story of Evolution, and the importance of storytelling in Science!

Exploring a 10 week course in Evolutionary Biology at KS3.

In this session we will outline the design of the course in evolutionary biology from its key concepts to the resources that you will need to make this a highly engaging, conceptually challenging and independent 10 week unit. It will be an interactive session, with a very short 5 minute introduction at the start, students who have experienced the course will be on hand to help explain how they used the resources to learn about Evolution. I hope to let you explore the resources we have and how we use them in the course, as well as share the ethos behind the importance of Storytelling in Science.

"Nothing in Biology makes sense except in the light of Evolution", Theodosius Dobzhansky.
