WEEK OF AUGUST 14, 2011
INTRODUCTION TO BIOTECHNOLOGY
Students will take lab safety test first part of the week. We will discuss careers, lab practices and ethics in biotechnology this week.
FORENSIC SCIENCE
Students will take safety test the first of the week. History and terms used in crime scene investigation will be discussed in class this week.
PRINCIPLES OF BIOMEDICAL SCIENCE
Students will begin working on the mystery of the women found dead in her apartment. This week will focus on the many body systems that may be involved in the women's death. This is a study of the body systems in general.
MEDICAL PROJECTS
Students will be discussing the ethics of genetically engineering and giving birth to a donor child to help save the life of an older sibling. The discussions will be based around the video "My Sister's Keeper".
HOMEROOM
Students, please return your homeroom packets with both parent and student signatures by the first of this week. THIS IS IMPORTANT.
AMAZING QUOTES
The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science.
-Albert Einstein
What am I but motion? In What direction shall I move but forward, when going backwards takes me only to where I am now standing?
Where I walk shall be my teaching.
What I see shall be my learning.
My silence shall be my growing.
