@moleycule @CMooreAnderson @SciEdRT Our research in secondary schools suggests that teaching genetics prior to teaching evolution improves evolution understanding https://t.co/TvqXSjAmFv (paper in link if you’d like more references ⬇️)

Milner Centre postgraduates @carokobras and @lauriebelch got busy sending out leaflets to 1500 secondary schools in England last week promoting the idea of teaching genetics before evolution, following research from the Milner Centre https://t.co/7ChvCIl2Lb

New paper in @NatureEcoEvo from L Hurst, R Mead and M Hejmadi from @MilnerCentre finds a UK in-school analysis reveals scientific aptitude is more important than beliefs in acceptance of evolution. Read behind the paper and find links here: https://t.co/oassoVS2iD
