This is a free interactive workshop for UI faculty and graduate student instructors, and K-12 science teachers on the principles of effective teaching about scientific topics that generate public controversy. It focuses specifically on climate change, fracking, and evolutionary theory. It is sponsored by Iowa City Darwin Day as part of the annual celebration of Darwin's birthday.
