Teaching Evolution: Improved Approaches for Unprepared Students.
Keown, Duane
American Biology Teacher, v50 n7 p407-10 Oct 1988
Contends that the natural science curriculum does not prepare biology students for understanding the process of evolution. Proposes improved teaching approaches related to geological time, the natural transition of earth environments, the variability and alteration of genetic makeup, and the biological potential of species as being necessary for students to conceptualize evolution.
