00:00:00.150 --> 00:00:03.750
- The best way to learn
science is to do science.

00:00:03.750 --> 00:00:05.400
Hi, my name is Wieteke

00:00:05.400 --> 00:00:08.520
and I'm a science content
creator here at Khan Academy,

00:00:08.520 --> 00:00:10.350
and I'm so excited to share with you

00:00:10.350 --> 00:00:12.870
our new hands-on biology activities.

00:00:12.870 --> 00:00:15.240
Thanks to support from
the Amgen Foundation,

00:00:15.240 --> 00:00:17.700
we've created these free
high school resources

00:00:17.700 --> 00:00:18.990
that let you explore

00:00:18.990 --> 00:00:21.480
and investigate real world phenomenon,

00:00:21.480 --> 00:00:23.850
whether you're in a classroom or at home.

00:00:23.850 --> 00:00:26.790
With these activities,
you'll get to analyze data,

00:00:26.790 --> 00:00:28.020
develop models,

00:00:28.020 --> 00:00:31.170
and conduct experiments
to answer questions like,

00:00:31.170 --> 00:00:34.620
why do animals prefer to eat ripe fruit?

00:00:34.620 --> 00:00:38.970
Why are male birds often
more colorful than females?

00:00:38.970 --> 00:00:42.870
And how does biodiversity
vary in my community?

00:00:42.870 --> 00:00:44.160
Each activity is aligned

00:00:44.160 --> 00:00:46.290
to the next generation science standards

00:00:46.290 --> 00:00:48.870
and comes with student and teacher guides

00:00:48.870 --> 00:00:50.520
for easy implementation.

00:00:50.520 --> 00:00:52.260
You can find all of these activities

00:00:52.260 --> 00:00:54.720
inside our high school
biology course here.

00:00:54.720 --> 00:00:57.300
So are you ready to do science?
