Laying down a new path in biology teaching, this book offers an organic alternative to traditional biology instruction. Read how to enact an adaptive learning environment where meaning isn't transmitted or discovered, but co-constructed. Learn how to provoke understanding with just diagrams and dialogue. Learn how to see with systems theory & variation theory. Inside you'll find:- An intuitive teaching model allowing you to teach without laborious resource creation.- Detailed examples of my lessons - the exact diagrams and questions I've used.- A how-to guide to co-constructing stock and flow diagrams, something that has vastly increased understanding in my classroom.
Plus an appendix of 37 of these diagrams I've used with my classes.- Four simple frameworks to implement in the classroom: for clarity of instruction according to variation theory, for employing stock and flow diagrams in lessons, for sharing "your way of seeing biology" with your students, for enhancing classroom discussion to ensure students build understanding - not just memory - of concepts.
