Learn Site is Back - Sort Of

Hello everyone. I hope you have enjoyed your break and are re-energized and ready to finish the semester strong. Here's some updates as well as the plan for the week of Jan. 7, 2013:

Updates:
1. The learn site is back - sort of. All of the old stuff is no longer there (they are still trying to recover it). However, a new site has replaced it; though it has the same appearance as the original. I will get the next several units loaded in over the next several days. In the meantime, the metabolism unit materials are still available at dropbox.com (Click here to access dropbox.com shared folder for the metabolism unit)

2. Take home test for metabolism is due on Tuesday. Be prepared for a free response question on the topic for Wednesday's class.

3. Monday - Wednesday will be lab based. Monday will involve data analysis from the cell respiration lab and prelabbing for Tuesday's photosynthesis lab. We will be completing a modified version of the lab and combining two investigations into one. Wednesday we will wrap things up and talk about the poster presentations you will be completing for the photosynthesis and cell respiration labs.

4. Please read through the photosynthesis lab in your lab books and begin to think of treatments that you may want to apply to your subjects. Please keep in mind that we will be doing a modified version of what is in your lab books so things will be slightly different. However, the background info is still relevant.

5. Watch the following walk through video:


If you want more info, check out this other video Mr Anderson did and/or click the lab bench tutorials link on the left of the blog and choose the photosynthesis lab.
