From Italy:
Graziano Scotto di Clemente,
mathematics and science teacher. Some questions
-
We teach biology and
now biology is the more present science because every day
our pupils listen news
about the world reserches on genetics.
-
The Genetics is now a
hard science with much high technology, very far-away from
Mendel's tecnology
o the traditional bio technology of the farmers. The human
society are changing animals and plants from 10000 - 12000
years, but these changes were slow and difficult, somehow
inside the ecological process.
-
But now the new researches
meet some ethical problems like the patents of human genetic
inheritance, the patents of seeds, the introduction
of modified organisms in the habitats and so on.
-
These 50 years from Crick
and Watson' article are changing very faster the relations
beetwen human
society and nature.
-
It is important to import these questions
inside the schools, so the youngest generations can study
all the aspects of the progress.
