Week 4 Discussion Biomolecules to the MAX!!!
HEY HEY SCHOLARS!!!
Its your friendly neighborhood Biology Teacher, Mr. D.
For this weeks post I would like you to analyze one FULL meal you had this week and I would like you to categorize and break down the whole meal as either: Carbohydrate (sugar), Protein, Lipid, or Starch.
For the second part I would like you to tell me what solution or test we could run to prove that each food belongs in each category. (Hint categorize as using BENEDICT'S Solution, BUIRET'S Solution, Iodine, Paper Bag)
Have a great Week!!!

Week 3 Discussion- Global Warming more help than harm?
Hello Scholars,
Welcome to the Week 3 Post. I think that in the past few years the issue of human impact on the earth especially in the area of Carbon Emmissions has surrounded our Nation with a sense of urgency and sometimes fear. With our last weeks post on the topic of Al Gore's : THE INCONVIENENT TRUTH, I wanted to challenge our previous way of thinking by hearing an alternative point of view. Not everyone believes in Al Gore's Nobel Prize Winning piece. I'd like to introduce you to someone who has challenged the Al Gore way of thinking on global carbon emmissions. I realize that this may cause some of you to think about your beliefs on global warming but I guess thats the point. Post those thoughts and comments hear. I'm always interested in reading your thought provoking points of view.
Go to the following link and listen to Mr. Bjorn Lomborg discuss his controversal book COOL IT. just hit the play button underneath where is says "An hour with Bjorn Lomborg" (you don't have to listen to the whole thing.)

Then read this excerpt for the book itself...

Week 2 Discussion Global Warming.... Sense of Urgency!
Welcome Scholars to Week 2 of our online discussion,
I'm sure most of you already have strong opinions on the issue of Global Warming but if you haven't already heard of Al Gore's: An Inconvenient Truth than I wanted to introduce to you an interesting way of thinking on the issue of Global Warming. As you hear this point of view please don't think its a scientific law... It is a THEORY (data to support but not proven over and over again.) This weeks information isn't meant to change your way of thinking merely to challenge it. Lets hear your opinions on Al Gore's: An Inconvenient Truth

I look forward to viewing your responses to this controversal topic.
