Online Simulation of Natural Selection = Evodots!

This is a great computer model of what factors affect natural selection. Students are "predators" and eat dots on the screen. They collect data on how the population changes over time and how variation, population size, and heritability of a trait affect how the population changes over time. The guide I've created here leads students through the simulation and provides embedded as well as summative questions to check for understanding.

Teaching style

Hands-on and investigative. I rarely lecture in my class. My style is very interactive and I need my students to be "working"! My classroom is set up for group work and enlist many different strategies and activities to facilitate effective group work in my classroom.
