“Bringing Biotechnology to Life” is a turn-key resource for educators and others interested in learning more about biotechnology and its role in food production. This unit of instruction addresses national learning standards for 7th – 10th grade, yet the interest level may be much broader. Seven sequential lessons guide the learner through the process of understanding DNA, selective breeding over time, biotechnology today, and GMOs. Join the discussion and exploration as we equip you with lesson plans and try engaging activities! Workshop Session (all workshops will be 75 minutes) | |
