Science in the Movies

Join us for this exciting and thought-provoking class of science and ethics. Students will view Jurassic Park, Two Episodes from Star Trek Voyager, and The Day After Tomorrow or I Robot (depending on which is easier for students to access). Each of these movies includes different types of science AND huge science-based ethical issues that we will discuss. Let's get into the sticky subject of artificial intelligence, global warming, genetic engineering, cloning, and more. This is a unique learning experience that is sure to make for deep thinking for your student and  an incredible dinner conversation for your family.
