Evolution in Any Environment! An Interdisciplinary Course Framework for Student Inquiry


Roundtable   +   Curriculum & Instruction   +   High School
Come on the river with us. See the evolution of the river, the valley it created, the organisms that live in, on, by and above it. Guide your students on a canoe trip to explore and understand evolution in the context of the river. We present an evolution/environmental systems course framework that focuses on allowing students to attain a level of achievement commensurate with their aptitude. Strong connections between standard academic content and principles of inclusion, heterogeneity and alternative assessments will become evident in the presentation of an indoor/outdoor, macro/micro study of the dynamic living environment. This roundtable session will focus on the creative process used to develop a thematic, interdisciplinary curricula and associated instructional materials to encourage active learning and achievement for students both in and out of the classroom.
