My Students

I have a group of teenagers who love to read, love technology and possess a thirst for knowledge. Not only for information contained in classroom text but supplemental material as well.

Unfortunately, for mostly financial reasons, children who live in the inner city are often left out of opportunities presented to people living elsewhere.

This should not be the case.

Living in the inner city effects all families, elderly couples and young working-class members, but nobody is affected more than children. Growing up as a child in the inner city is certainly a challenge. These kids don't have adequate facilities to grow up in a healthy manner. Parks aren't well-kept streets are dirty and above all, the education they are offered is inexcusably poor. For most kids, a solid education is perhaps their only chance to get off the streets, out of the city so that they can create a better situation for their own kids. But if these inner city kids aren't given the same educational opportunities as other kids, then they can never get out and the problem just grows.

My Project

This lesson introduces students to the concept of medications development and gives students a simulation to apply what they know about neurotransmitters, neurotransmission and zombies . This lesson was inspired by the book the “Zombie Autopsies” by Dr. Steven Schlozman.

Students will be challenged to put together their knowledge of neurons, neurotransmitters, neuroanatomy and zombies to create a cure that will save the world.

They are our last hope! So they must take on the task of a novel medications developer or they will let humanity down.

Student will use their psychology knowledge, along with technology for research to become "medical students".
