Erin Woods, Jasmine Chong, Michael Carlson, and Sandeep Bening PART ONE: The Resources SBI3U – Evolution Unit Category Basic Concepts of Science Skills of Inquiry & Communication Nature of Science (NOS) Relationships Amongst Sciences, Technologies, Societies and Environments By the end of these lessons, students will: Grade 11 Resource Type 1. Historical Case Study: Darwin’s Finches and Natural Selection 2. Hook/Teacher Demonstration: Environment Stresses and Change 3. Wet Lab: Natural Selection and Mutation 4. Recent Research Development: Reviewing a Scientific Paper on Escherichia coli Evolution 5. Dry Lab: Case Study on Penicillin and Antibiotic Resistance 6. Contemporary Issues-based Case Study: Genetically Modified Foods: Good or Bad? 1. Darwin’s Finches and Natural Selection C2.1. use appropriate terminology related to evolution C3.1. explain the fundamental theory of evolution, using the evolutionary mechanism of natural selection to illustrate the process of biological change over time 2. Environment Stresses and Change C1.2 Evaluate the possible impact of an environmental change on natural selection and on the vulnerability of species C2.1 Use appropriate terminology related to evolution C3.2 Explain the process of adaptation of individual organisms to their environment 3. Natural Selection and Mutation C2.4 investigate, through a case study or computer simulation, the processes of natural selection and artificial selection, and analyse the different mechanisms by which they occur C3.4 describe some evolutionary mechanisms, and explain how they affect the evolutionary development and extinction of various species 4. Reviewing a Scientific Paper on Eschericia coli Evolution C1.2 evaluate the possible impact of an environmental change on natural selection and on the vulnerability of species C2.2 use a research process to investigate some of the key factors that affect the evolutionary process 5. Case Study on Penicillin and Antibiotic Resistance C2.4 investigate, through a case study or computer simulation, the processes of natural selection and artificial selection, and analyse the different mechanisms by which they occur C3.2 explain the process of adaptation of individual organisms to their environment 6. Genetically Modified Foods: Good or Bad? C1.1 analyse, on the basis of research, the economic and environmental advantages and disadvantages of an artificial selection technology Evolution Unit Overview Day 1 Day 2 Day 3 Day 4 Day 5 Introduction: History of Evolution Before the Theory of Evolution Darwin's Finches and Natural Selection Genetic Variation and Genetic Drift Sexual Selection and Artificial Selection Diagnostic Assessment: Exit Card (1.
