Raging hormones

Submitted by adiflesher on Wed, 07/09/2008 - 12:05am.

What a great example of how we get teaching backwards. It seems to me that we should start with the burning questions on their minds (depression, romance, stress, sports - etc) and then tie them back to hormones.

I know that I wouldn't necessairly be excited for a class called seretonin and dopamine. But a class called depression and love. Now that's exciting!
