Purpose To develop an awareness of the issues, benefits, and concerns involved in the use of DNA and Biotechnology Procedure 1. Students will research one of the following topics in order to gain specific information about the topic and how genetics or biotechnology is involved. 2. Students will create a power point and present it to the class. 3. Students will take notes on every power point and take a test on the information presented. Research 1. All sources of information must be documented using Noodletools.com or easybib.com 2. No bibliography = zero score on this project. Topics 1. The Human Genome Project 2. Gene Therapy 3. Biowarfare 4.
