Description: |
Two videos, The Human Genome Project and Biotechnology on Earth, on one DVD.
The Human Genome Project
Help your students learn why the Human Genome Project is revolutionary. The goal of the project (already achieved in rough form in the year 2001) is to decipher all of the genes in the human species. That is, to make public the detailed blueprints for making a human being. This up-to-date program takes you inside an automated gene sequencing laboratory where your students will learn how human genes are isolated, fragmented and how their DNA base sequences are determined. Controversial ethical issues are also addressed.
Biotechnology on Earth
The 20th century saw the earth dramatically changed by industrial technology. The 21st century will see the earth even more dramatically changed by biotechnology and its handmaiden, nanotechnology. Urge your students to think instead of dogmatize about their future with the help of this comprehensive new video that presents both the science and the ethical issues in a global perspective.
