Evolution Unit Reflection
Evolution was the main topic that we focused on in the first semester of STEM biology and biotechnology. Everything from our dissections to our Transitional Species Videos were included in this vast unit. We first introduced ourselves to the topic of 'evolution' by making posters that represented the change in species throughout several hundreds of millions of years. We then transitioned into making models for our Transitional Species videos. During this unit, we also watched several informative Youtube videos about the evolution of organisms over time. In my opinion, these videos were the most helpful. They gave me a very firm grasp on what evolution actually was, and how I could tie that in with the projects we were doing at the time. These projects were based solely on team work and cooperation, was well as our knowledge of evolution. This unit was just generally interesting, it gave me a look into what life used to be like, like I was looking back at my very own history of being.
