The Markkula Center for Applied Ethics has developed lesson plans that integrate ethical questions into the study of biology, human science, and earth science. All lesson plans map to the California State Standards for high school science classes. The curricula foster literacy and competence in scientific concepts, as well as prompting students to consider the ethical questions inherent in the ideas they are studying.
