Monday 2/08/10 - In Class and Homework
Time was given in class to use the computers to help continue learning about the material in 19.2 (Using the Campbell web site animations as a tool). The last 15 minutes or so was spent working in small groups preparing to teach the material to 2 or 3 other students tomorrow. The homework is to complete your preparation.
Friday, February 5th 2010 - In class and Homework
We received a 5 page handout (as well as the Chapter 19 objectives) dealing with Sections 19.1 and 19.2. 19.2 has some challenging material so we are breaking it down in a way to help teach each other, (taking notes, etc.). The homework is to continue to work on teaching preparation.

Thursday, February 4th -In Class and Homework
We began the period by reading the 1st 2 and 1/2 pages of section 19.2 - focusing in on the regulation of genes by affecting chromatin structure. We then watched a clip from "NOVA Science Now" dealing with a Hot Topic - Epigenetics. After a brief discussion, we finished class beginning the reading of the Jan 18th, 2010 Time Magazine cover story - "Why your DNA isn't your destiny" . The homework is to finish reading this article as well as the other 2 page handout dealing with Epigenetics.
