2.6 APES: Adaptation & Natural Selection
We've collaborated with PocketLab to allow users to upload Notebook files. Notebooks allow you to integrate live copies of a sim into an activity!
| Title | 2.6 APES: Adaptation & Natural Selection |
| Description | This lesson uses PocketLab Notebook software to deliver lessons to students with the simulation embedded. This Evolution Lab will be done using PhET's Natural Selection simulation. The lab fits into Unit 7 in AP Biology and Unit 2 in AP Environmental Science. In the first part, students explore changes to environmental factors related to a population of rabbits. Students track and graph their outcomes. In part two, students select their own factor/variable to test out. |
