“Exploring Bioethics,” from the National Institutes of Health, helps
students grapple with ethical issues posed by advances in the life
sciences. This supplemental curriculum for students in grades 9-12 (one
of dozens from NIH) focuses on real-life cases involving vaccinations,
genetic testing, and more. Six inquiry-based modules help students
address questions such as: What are the ethical questions involved in
these areas of science? And, who could be affected by these decisions? http://science.education.nih.gov/supplements/nih9/bioethics/default.htm |
