Look What Teachers
Are Saying...

The beauty of the SALI program is that it allows the instructor to teach relevant life science content, and at the same time, develops science process skills as well, and in a logical and developmentally-appropriate sequence. Another distinct advantage of the program is that it focuses on issues and tradeoffs, facilitating some really meaningful and engaging discussions revolving around bioethics. In the past, I feared appearing "preachy" about the issues that concern me, but now the discussions flow freely and objectively as an extension of the course. Finally, I find that I am able to modify lessons to meet the specific abilities and interests of my school's demography. Some lessons work better than others, and I can occasionally come up with suggested improvements, but my doubts that a single curriculum existed which could adequately meet the needs of my students have been erased.
