It seems that the world is not heading towards an era of darkness, superstition and idiocy, as we have been seeing with the statements of some public figures<\/a> about 5G, coronavirus or vaccines<\/strong>. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n At least, not in all aspects. In relation to teaching creationism in American schools<\/strong>At least we can feel satisfied. <\/p>\n According to the results of a published study<\/a> on June 10 show that the proportion of US high school biology teachers who teach creationism as a scientifically valid alternative to evolution has fallen from 32% in 2007 to 18% in 2019<\/strong>. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Additionally, the amount of class time devoted to the study of human evolution has skyrocketed by almost 90%.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 30 British scientists ask to combat Creationism at school<\/a>\n <\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n According to the study's authors: "We show that these changes reflect both generational replacement, by teachers who are new to the profession, and changes in teaching practices among those who taught in the era before the famous Kitzmiller case." . <\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00abTammy Kitzmiller, et al. v. Dover School District<\/a>", was the first direct challenge in a US federal court against a public school district demanding the explanation of "intelligent design" as an alternative to evolution for the "explanation of the origin of life \u00bb. The judge ruled that Intelligent design is not a scientific concept, and therefore could not be taught as science in schools.<\/strong>. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Is evolution a theory or a fact? (YO)<\/a>\n <\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n Reviewing the state of evolution education is important because the 2007 survey was conducted in the field less than 2 years after the well-publicized Kitzmiller v. Dover. The decision in that case was unequivocal: creationism, even in its most recent intelligent design guise, was religious in nature and could not be taught in public school science classrooms. Kitzmiller v. Dover<\/strong> It represented the latest in a long line of cases protecting the teaching of evolution and seemed to end any serious effort to openly introduce creationism. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Besides, In the last 10 years we have seen significant efforts to promote the teaching of evolution<\/strong>. Organizations such as the National Science Teaching Association, the National Association of Biology Teachers, and the National Academy of Sciences have developed classroom reports and resources, professional development opportunities, and more to advance the inclusion of evolution in the nation's classrooms.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n – It seems that the world is not heading towards an era of darkness, superstition and idiocy, as we have been seeing with the statements of some public figures about 5G, coronavirus or vaccines. <\/p>\n At least, not in all\u2026<\/p>","protected":false},"author":19,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[125],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-11637","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-portal-3"},"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/forocilac.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11637","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/forocilac.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/forocilac.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/forocilac.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/19"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/forocilac.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11637"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"http:\/\/forocilac.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11637\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12457,"href":"http:\/\/forocilac.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11637\/revisions\/12457"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/forocilac.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11637"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/forocilac.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11637"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/forocilac.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11637"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
