About This Activity
Zoology class focuses on the scientific study of animals, their behavior, anatomy, physiology, genetics, evolution, and ecology. Students learn about various animal species, their classification, and their interactions with the environment. Topics often include animal physiology, reproduction, development, and the evolutionary relationships among different animal groups. Practical components involve lab work, dissections, and field studies, allowing students to observe and analyze live or preserved specimens to deepen their understanding of animal biology. Instructor: Jamye Carr "I have 20 years of experience in public school teaching, specializing in Biology, Chemistry, Aquatic Science, and Astronomy. My teaching style incorporates student guided inquiry based learning, Socratic instruction, and adaptive lessons. Prior to working in education I was a marine biologist and histotechnologist, working on learning about animals and working with the Gladys Porter Zoo in Brownsville and the Cameron Park Zoo in Waco Texas. My strengths involve my ability to work with a diverse population of students, from at risk teenagers to struggling adults. My passion is to make the world a better place, to increase the ability of students to manage their own problems, to solve through critical thinking skills, and to gather and process information skillfully."
