After this worksheet we would show the video ]]> 2021-07-21 14:09:43 UTC https://padlet.com/ggajewicz/bdz939a1ihzwou01/wish/1657162142 ggajewicz https://padlet.com/ggajewicz/bdz939a1ihzwou01/wish/1657162372 Focus of worksheet: Speciation and developing model of speciation. Students read a text source.

This is more of an instructional activity rather than an assessment tool.

Instructional activity:
-Students read text and reflect on text.
-Students work to further develop the model and work as a class to develop of consensus model.
-A good way to help students visualize how species evolve.

c. "Pre- and post- zygotic reproductive factors"?? New vocab?

PROS - deploys and modifies; students create

CONS - long worksheets so maybe break it up; talks about birds, fish, bacteria to plants]]> 2021-07-21 14:10:12 UTC https://padlet.com/ggajewicz/bdz939a1ihzwou01/wish/1657162597 ggajewicz https://padlet.com/ggajewicz/bdz939a1ihzwou01/wish/1657162834 - really like Q1 which brings in disease, diversity, benefits of sexual repro

-Q2 further develops sexual selection and brings in idea of human exploitation; getting at directional vs. stabilizing selection

- Q3 might not use... but does get at genetically linked traits vs. learned behaviors/acquired traits

-Q4 confusing as to who can mate with who... what the color combos make

Use first few questions for lower level students... the Qs get more advanced. Really long WS!]]> 2021-07-21 14:10:27 UTC https://padlet.com/ggajewicz/bdz939a1ihzwou01/wish/1657162834 ggajewicz https://padlet.com/ggajewicz/bdz939a1ihzwou01/wish/1657163156 Q1 gets at disruptive selection

Q2 has students practice refining/articulating an argument based on evidence]]> 2021-07-21 14:10:46 UTC https://padlet.com/ggajewicz/bdz939a1ihzwou01/wish/1657163156 ggajewicz https://padlet.com/ggajewicz/bdz939a1ihzwou01/wish/1657163817 This would be given after the lizard scenario lab. Something to be changed in the quiz to make the storyboards more than three boxes to gives students more space to flesh out their ideas.]]> 2021-07-21 14:11:29 UTC https://padlet.com/ggajewicz/bdz939a1ihzwou01/wish/1657163817 ggajewicz https://padlet.com/ggajewicz/bdz939a1ihzwou01/wish/1657164488 Quiz question uses an example of an acquired trait rather than a trait that is heritable. So, before using this quiz, students should have been introduced to the idea of acquired characteristics and the fact that these traits cannot be passed on.

Good assessment of student's alternative understandings of how evolution happens.

Could turn this into a multiple choice question that asks students to consider generation and also could have students to explain their answers.]]> 2021-07-21 14:12:13 UTC https://padlet.com/ggajewicz/bdz939a1ihzwou01/wish/1657164488 ggajewicz https://padlet.com/ggajewicz/bdz939a1ihzwou01/wish/1657165143 Change "verbal" to "written".

Fits well with the paradigm lab, but we would need to introduce speciation.]]> 2021-07-21 14:12:56 UTC https://padlet.com/ggajewicz/bdz939a1ihzwou01/wish/1657165143 ggajewicz https://padlet.com/ggajewicz/bdz939a1ihzwou01/wish/1657165232 Only 2 questions

Mice + Food + School = Ew!
(...but relative)

PROS - interpreting graphs in words

CONS - general population might not remember all mechanisms of evolution, so give them MC and justify answer;]]> 2021-07-21 14:13:01 UTC https://padlet.com/ggajewicz/bdz939a1ihzwou01/wish/1657165232 ggajewicz https://padlet.com/ggajewicz/bdz939a1ihzwou01/wish/1657165467 We need to make sure they have seen examples of storyboarding in this way.

A mix of multiple choice questions embedded between the free response questions both helps students and teachers-- especially written questions that expand on their multiple choice selection.

Perhaps make the graph on page 3 look more like a graph rather than a storyboard.
