Science Surprises: Exploring the Nature of Science on July 16, 2014

As a high school biology teacher, I have used numerous lessons from the ENSI website over the years. I always try to start out my school year delving into how science works, what science is and isn't, the difference between hypotheses, theories and laws, etc. Larry Flammer has written a very accessible, detailed and easy to use unit on the nature of science. It's written in a student friendly manner and includes current examples of scientific studies and controversies. There is a teacher's guide that is correlated to NGSS and shows which ENSI activities should be used to demonstrate particular ideas about the nature of science. The unit is organized using the 5E learning cycle and includes a day-by-day lesson plan on how to implement the unit. It's all here in one package.
