Students who had to re-submit their homework from yesterday (or submit it for the first time) did so at the beginning of the class.
We reviewed the 3 kinds of irony, and discussed examples from previous classes.
In small groups, students discussed the nature of scientific experimentation and the ethical lines they believe should/should not be crossed.
We watched the following video on GENETIC ENGINEERING and talked about all of the ways in which it is already outdated.
We also discussed:
Scientists who have done what was once thought impossible - Dolly the Sheep
Scientists who started with CRSPR and continued with MRNA vaccines
and good old hubris in this excellent scene from one of the Jurassic Park films
