Lesson Overview: Students first reflect upon their own ancestry and racial identity (see questions below), and then continue with a guided lesson on polygenic inheritance and genetic analysis to better understand the mechanics of DNA/ancestry testing and its inherent limitations. What can we conclude from such testing? What can we not conclude? Why?
Student Reflection:
“I was able to learn more about the specific backgrounds of people in the class, helping me to group people less.” Comments are closed.
