Investigations: a Handbook for Biology Courses
-
Description
-
The goal of this handbook is to communicate to students the opportunities they have in the Departments of Biology and Chemistry, as well as the expectations of their work in Grinnell College courses. Because of the close interaction between courses required for the Biology, Chemistry and Biological Chemistry majors, we recognize the need to speak in one voice about our approaches to teaching science. While you will find many differences between courses in our departments, we hope you will recognize and learn the common skills that are fundamental to good scientific understanding and practice.

Tutorial: Color, Culture and Class, Color, Culture and Class, Tutorial (2010)
-
Description
-
Race thinking dominates ways in which people in the United States differentiate groups of people from each other. This tutorial focuses on associations between color and culture in order to examine how racial meanings are constructed and made comprehensible as well as how they are routed through representations of class. Using a combination of texts -- academic articles, films, newspapers and advertisements -- we will explore representations of "whiteness," "blackness," and other "race-d" identities in the public arena. Throughout the semester we will interrogate the language, ideas and assumptions that give meaning to the different ways we perceive the world around us and through which we understand our individual experiences.
