Biology An AskERIC Response January 2003 Question What resources do you have for teaching high school biology? Response Hello, In response to your request for information on teaching biology, I conducted a sample search of the ERIC database. Below I have appended my search strategy, 12 citations with abstracts, and directions for accessing the full text. These citations may represent an introductory, rather than exhaustive, search for information on your topic. If you would like to conduct your own free ERIC database searches via the Internet, please visit the ERIC Database Help pages for directions or go directly to http://www.eduref.org/Eric/adv_search.shtml to search. I have also attached some related resources that may be helpful. Thank you for using AskERIC! If you have any questions or would like further assistance, please do not hesitate to send another message. AskERIC Staff Internet Sites: * Biology in Motion. Produced by Dr. Leif Saul, a biology teacher and Web site/ game developer, Biology in Motion has two interactive education activities. Organize-It introduces an alternative way to test biological understanding by organizing concepts hierarchically. Evolution Lab allows users to investigate how natural selection works by watching an animated simulation. http://www.biologyinmotion.com/

Hands-on Activities for Teaching Biology to High School or Middle School Students Ingrid Waldron is a member of the Biology Department at the University of Pennsylvania, who developed hands on biology activities for grades 6-12 in collaboration with colleagues at Penn and K-12 teachers. Serendip is pleased to make these activities available to a wider audience. These hands-on activities cover a broad range of biological topics, including genetics, natural selection, microorganisms, and human physiology. These activities are designed to: help students understand important biological principles and concepts, develop student understanding of the scientific process, and improve students' writing and math skills. Supplies: Most of these activities can be carried out with minimum equipment and expense for supplies. Sources for needed equipment and supplies are indicated in the Teacher Preparation Notes. Printing the Labs and Teacher Preparation Notes: Each lab is available as a web page, as an Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) file (a more printer-friendly format), and as a Word file (which you are welcome to edit as appropriate for use in your classroom). You must have Adobe Acrobat Reader installed on your computer to read the PDF files. You can download the free Adobe Acrobat Reader software here Table of Contents Is Yeast Alive?

Calculator Create A Graph Java Quiz Maker Jellycounter.com The Biology Corner is a resource site for biology and science teachers. The Lesson Plans section contains classroom activities, labs and worksheets, feel free to change any of these to suit your own classroom needs. The Webquest section contains inquiry based projects that utilize the internet. Internet lessons (also called miniquests) are smaller activities that use one or two science related web sites for the students to explore and answer questions about. Again, feel free to modify these activities so that they work for your class and your style of teaching. I've been making it a personal mission to locate and compile interactive science education sites. Some web programs like Flash can create some amazing virtual labs that students can really benefit from. You will find many of these places in the section under internet lessons, all of which utilize fantastic websites to help students understand scientific concepts. Please contact me if you know of other sites (particularly shockwave virtual labs) and I'll add more lessons. Answer keys are not included, due to the fact my students use this site.

The Office of Science Teaching Activities (OSTA) was formed by the college of Arts and Sciences in 1983. The function of OSTA is to coordinate all activities related to science and mathematics teaching within the College of Arts and Sciences and to serve as the College's liaison with the College of Education. Over the years OSTA has initiated many science activities for K-12 teachers and students, and for undergraduate students at FSU. Most notable among these are: An undergraduate major in Secondary Science and Mathematics Teaching within the College of Arts and Sciences. Students receive their degrees from the College and are certified to teach in two science and/or mathematics areas. The Office of Science Teaching Activities is a National Network Center for Great Explorations in Math and Science (GEMS) . GEMS is a resource for activity-based science and mathematics developed at the University of California at Berkeley's Lawrence Hall of Science. Through our GEMS Center professional development courses are offered for K-8 teachers to enhance the teaching and learning of science in the classrooms.

From 1991-1994, the project was funded by FIPSE (Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education, U.S. Department of Education) and NSF (National Science Foundation) to develop a new general biology course at the UO. From 1994 to 1998, again with FIPSE and NSF funding, the project focused on developing a nationwide network of college biology teachers and providing resources and assistance for curriculum development and assessment.
