AP Biology: Teaching Students how to Respond to Free Response Questions
On the AP Biology exam students will be asked to respond to 6 Free Response Questions (their responses on this section will represent 50% of the points earned on the exam). There are certain skills they need to be successful on this portion of the exam. A few of these skills include reading the prompt carefully and responding in a clear, specific manner. Because my own students have had very little practice with technical writing when they join my course in the fall, I like to start with the bas

Transcription and Translation Inquiry-Based Project
This is a group inquiry-based project that not only allows students to explore the processes of transcription and translation but shows them how to use BLAST on the NCBI website. In this project, each group is given a different DNA sequence in which they transcribe and translate by hand. Then, they take the DNA sequence and put it through a BLAST program to see what protein (or protein domain) is encoded by the DNA sequence. Students then go further and study this particular protein/protein d
