On this site we will shortly present teaching materials related to the videos, animations and educational simulations for “Evolution of Life”.
The materials offered can be used in the classroom and are designed to encourage teachers to plan their own lessons. The teaching materials can be used before, after and during the videos, animations and educational simulations.
They provide teachers with detailed background information on topical issues of evolutionary biology from research and everyday life, like the evolution of HIV or the avian influenza virus H5N1. You will also find suggestions for teaching methods and pupil activities. Worksheets, illustrated texts and innovative tasks and exercises will illuminate evolution as an on-going process and provide pupils with a better understanding of evolutionary principles and mechanisms in authentic contexts and in every-day life.
