This NGSS Modeling Biology Capstone Course has been developed for use in a high school science curriculum that begins with physics, followed by chemistry, and then biology. We have developed and classroom tested materials for five topics (with a total of eight instructional units). These are:
1- Introduction to Biology
2- Biological Molecules (A-Chemistry of Life; B-Enzymes)
3- DNA (A-Structure and Function; B-Transcription and Translation)
4- The Cell
5- Energy and Biological Processes (A-Cellular Respiration and Bioenergetics; B-Photosynthesis and Biosynthesis).
Subsequent topics will include inheritance, organism biology, ecology and evolution. For an overview of the course, see the first attachment below.
