Evolutionary Biology: Where Do We Go Now?

Evolutionary Biology: Where Do We Go Now? Video A video micro-lecture that describes different ways in which climate change affects behaviour, morphology, and physiology of organisms. This video lecture by Dr. George Gilchrist, Professor of Biology at the College of William and Mary, on evolutionary adaptation highlights the difference between environmental adaptation and phenotypic plasticity, […]

Evolutionary Adaptations to Climate Change

Evolutionary Adaptations to Climate Change Overview As a high school or undergraduate Biological Sciences teacher, you can use this set of computer-based tools to teach about evolutionary adaptations in animals due to climate change Evolutionary Adaptation is the morphological or physiological adjustment of organisms to their environment to improve their chances of survival. With climate […]

Climate Change and Reproductive Fitness in Red Deer

Climate Change and Reproductive Fitness in Red Deer Overview As an Undergraduate Biological Sciences teacher, you can use this set of computer based tools to enable students to develop a comprehensive understanding about how vertebrate populations of red deer (Cervus elaphus) show evolutionary responses in terms of reproductive fitness to climate change. Through this lesson […]

Natural Selection and Climate Change

Natural Selection and Climate Change Overview As a high school or undergraduate, Biological Sciences teacher, you can use this set of computer-based tools to teach about natural selection, its role in evolution and climate change as a selective pressure in natural selection. This lesson plan will enable the students to understand Darwin’s theory of natural […]
