Week 12: Global Warming.... Sense of Urgency?

To the scholars,

Welcome to Week 12 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

Week 11: Evolution, Was It Really What You Thought?

Scholars,

Make sure you get all those missing assignments in this week because there is not much time before the 2nd six weeks ends. This past week we discussed the topic of Evolution. Most of us came into this week with our own ideas of what Science thought of Evolution but I wanted to know if anything that we discussed this week was eye opening or new information to you. Post your thoughts and have a great week.

Shine on

Mr. D
