The workshop
Using evolution and ecology instructors can bring topics to students that provide them with important life skills in regard to being informed global citizens. In this workshop we will explore how it is that historical topics around early evolution debates set the stage for present day concepts and presentations. Using a course that was developed for the General Education program at Harvard University we will examine the way in which an integrated presentation (with literature, biology, and history) can lead students to broaden their views about the world in which they live and relate to their studies outside particular fields.
