Chapter 1: The Science of Biology |
Bring in a simple mechanical object that does not work, like a flashlight. Go through the process of the scientific method to diagnose what is wrong and fix it. (This does presume that you do know what is wrong and have the parts to make it good.) Then make an awful pun about seeing the light!
Slides illustrating the kinds of organisms observed by Darwin during his voyage are quite helpful. Include examples of diversity in selectively bred plants or animals (varieties of corn, dairy and beef cattle, fancy goldfish) as well as examples of the similarity of island life forms versus mainland forms.
