Debunking Evolution Taught in Public Schools (Student Guide)


Book Description

This Student Guide is designed to be used with our Debunking Evolution Taught in Public Schools DVD (available on our website or through Christian retailers), which includes 12 videos to prepare students for evolution teaching in public schools. Together with our Debunking Evolution book, this set makes a six-lesson program that can be adapted for students between junior high and college, and facilitated by parents or youth leaders. Our program is based on a straight-forward view on Genesis, and is drawn from research conducted by leading Biblical Creation ministries. The six lessons include: * Lesson 1: Why is Creation-Evolution Training Important?* Lesson 2: Bible History-Real or Fiction? Can we trust the Bible's account of history? The Age of the Earth, Dating Methods, and Evolution are also reviewed.* Lesson 3: Did Humans Evolve from Ape-like Creatures? * Lesson 4: Adaptation and Natural Selection* Lesson 5: Common Ancestors/Branching & Homology* Lesson 6: Fossils, Whales, and Extinction




Debunking Evolution


Book Description

This book is essential for Christian students attending junior high to college-especially before taking biology and earth science classes. Virtually all public schools teach evolution as fact, and this takes a serious toll on the faith of many unprepared Christians. The straight-forward account in Genesis provides the true history of Creation, yet so many of today's youth fall prey to evolution teaching, losing their trust in the Bible and the Christian faith as a result. This book provides the foundation of a six-lesson program that will arm students before they enter college. The companion DVD includes 12 helpful videos (available online at www.debunkevolution.com or through Christian retailers) that help students understand the weak foundations of evolution teaching and the strong case for Biblical Creation. Student Guides are also available. The six lessons include: 1- Why is Creation / Evolution Training Important? 2- Bible History-Real or Fiction? Can we trust the Bible's account of history? 3- Did Humans Evolve from Ape-like Creatures? 4- Creation-Evolution 101: Adaptation & Natural Selection 5- Creation-Evolution 102: Common Ancestors/Branching & Homology 6- Creation-Evolution 201: Fossils, Whales, and Extinction

Debunking Human Evolution Taught in Our Public Schools


Book Description

Most biology classes in today's public schools teach evolutionary theory as fact, and only rarely mention creation possibilities outside of this theory. This book is essential for Christians attending public high school or college - especially before they take biology or other science classes. This book is written by leading Christian scientists, and will help Christian high school and college students solidify their faith and grow roots to withstand evolution-based teaching. Topics included: ape and human differences; a history of human evolution in textbooks; typical ape-to-human progressions taught in textbooks; different "races" of people; DNA similarity; genetics and a recent creation; over-design in biology; vestigial structures; and biblical authority.




Debunking Human Evolution Taught in Public Schools - Junior/Senior High Edition


Book Description

Debunking Human Evolution Taught in Public Schools


Book Description

This book is essential for Christians attending public junior/senior high school. Most world history and biology classes in today's public schools teach human evolution as fact, and only rarely mention creation possibilities outside of this theory, such as Biblical Creation. We've designed this book to help Christian junior/senior high school students solidify their faith and grow roots to withstand evolution-based teaching. Topics include: - Differences between Apes and Humans - Typical Ape-to-Human Progression in Public School Textbooks - A Brief History of Human Evolution in Textbooks - What about the Different "Races" of People? - Biblical Authority




Why Evolution is True


Book Description

For all the discussion in the media about creationism and 'Intelligent Design', virtually nothing has been said about the evidence in question - the evidence for evolution by natural selection. Yet, as this succinct and important book shows, that evidence is vast, varied, and magnificent, and drawn from many disparate fields of science. The very latest research is uncovering a stream of evidence revealing evolution in action - from the actual observation of a species splitting into two, to new fossil discoveries, to the deciphering of the evidence stored in our genome. Why Evolution is True weaves together the many threads of modern work in genetics, palaeontology, geology, molecular biology, anatomy, and development to demonstrate the 'indelible stamp' of the processes first proposed by Darwin. It is a crisp, lucid, and accessible statement that will leave no one with an open mind in any doubt about the truth of evolution.

Teaching About Evolution and the Nature of Science


Book Description

Today many school students are shielded from one of the most important concepts in modern science: evolution. In engaging and conversational style, Teaching About Evolution and the Nature of Science provides a well-structured framework for understanding and teaching evolution. Written for teachers, parents, and community officials as well as scientists and educators, this book describes how evolution reveals both the great diversity and similarity among the Earth's organisms; it explores how scientists approach the question of evolution; and it illustrates the nature of science as a way of knowing about the natural world. In addition, the book provides answers to frequently asked questions to help readers understand many of the issues and misconceptions about evolution. The book includes sample activities for teaching about evolution and the nature of science. For example, the book includes activities that investigate fossil footprints and population growth that teachers of science can use to introduce principles of evolution. Background information, materials, and step-by-step presentations are provided for each activity. In addition, this volume: Presents the evidence for evolution, including how evolution can be observed today. Explains the nature of science through a variety of examples. Describes how science differs from other human endeavors and why evolution is one of the best avenues for helping students understand this distinction. Answers frequently asked questions about evolution. Teaching About Evolution and the Nature of Science builds on the 1996 National Science Education Standards released by the National Research Councilâ€"and offers detailed guidance on how to evaluate and choose instructional materials that support the standards. Comprehensive and practical, this book brings one of today's educational challenges into focus in a balanced and reasoned discussion. It will be of special interest to teachers of science, school administrators, and interested members of the community.
