First-year students at Franklin & 麻豆传媒色情片 are heading out of the classroom and into the laboratory鈥攁nd surrounding community鈥攁s part of the course 鈥淎 Hands-On History of Biology.鈥�

The class is one of F&M鈥檚 Connections Seminars, which students take during their first semester on campus to introduce them to the academic life of F&M. These classes also are taught in the students鈥� College House, demonstrating F&M鈥檚 commitment to living-learning spaces.

鈥淎 Hands-On History of Biology,鈥� taught by adjunct Assistant Professor of Public Health Nicholas Bonneau in the Roschel College House Seminar Room, encourages students to explore campus and Lancaster in addition to learning about the history of science.

Through lab assignments, students reenact famous scientific experiments that lead to key breakthroughs鈥攍ike growing their own pea plants to get a firsthand understanding of Gregor Mendel鈥檚 genetics research. Their weekly fieldwork often involves observing the natural environment around campus, or visiting off-campus locations like the North Museum of Nature & Science.

Students said they appreciate how the hands-on activities help illustrate the concepts taught in class.

鈥淔or a demonstration about how the heart works, we were running around the classroom filling up beakers,鈥� said Ariel Felsher 鈥�28, adding that the activity provided a better sense of just how quickly blood circulates in the human body. 

Other students shared how approaching science from a historical perspective helps make the process of scientific discovery seem more accessible. Rather than showing science as a set of static facts to memorize, the course portrays it as a process they can participate in themselves.

鈥淏iology is very interesting, but sometimes classes skip over how things are discovered and mostly talk about how they are,鈥� said Collin Senters 鈥�28. 鈥淚 like this framing, as if you were the person in history who made that discovery.鈥�
