Upcoming teacher workshop: 2020 event is cancelled
Each summer, we host a teacher workshop on evolution at UVA's Mountain Lake Biological Station in Pembroke, VA. Teachers learn about evolutionary field research at the station, discuss exciting discoveries in evolutionary biology and how to communicate these discoveries in the classroom, and leave with new ideas for hands-on activities in the middle and high school classroom. |
Exciting new lesson plans in evolutionary biology
Our workshops include hands-on demonstrations of the Lizard Evolution Virtual Lab, an excellent new classroom resource developed by evolutionary biologists and the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. We discuss how these lessons integrate with current evolutionary research at Mountain Lake and our Florida field sites. Use these interactive lessons to bring real data into your classroom! |
