September 12th, 2009 will mark the 200th birthday of Charles Darwin. This year also marks the 150th anniversary of the publication of his famous and monumental book "On the Origin of Species". The year will obviously be marked by anniversary celebrations, including on this blog and in my classroom.
Scientific American magazine has started the year off by dedicating an entire issue to the subject of evolution. Topics include the evolution of the mind, the evolutionary history of humans, the video game "Spore", the creationism/evolution controversy, and the future of the human species. This should be good reading and provide a lot of material for discussion.
