By Lara Ajayi Grade: 9
Concept: Using the scientific method as a process to understand and predict natural phenomena requiring instrumentation and measurement in science.
By Tate Gooden Grades 9 - 12
Concept: This lesson focuses on Forestry Issues. The goal is to cover both sides of the issue concerning the Headwaters Forest in Northern California and have the students develop their own opinions and back them up with scientific reasoning and sound logic. The assessment for the students is to write a letter to the editor stating whether or not the forest should be preserved or logged. The lesson is based on a publication from the Lawrence Hall of Science entitled Global Systems Science: A New World View which provides background literature and lesson ideas.
