Please can you tell me why I should like, Appinscience's Martian web quest and the other over complicated compose a letter or Email HWs DD2 brings home.
We had an awful thing about sound and hearing loss in which the science got totally lost.
DD2 favourite subject is English, she's top set and really good at writting. However, even she looks at these and says this is just a load of meaningless waffle.
After writting 2.5 sides of A4, I suspect she had learn't no more cell biology than she would in answering a worksheet with perhaps 8 one line answers and a short paragraph at the end.
I hold a PG Biology degree and I'm all for making science relavent to the real world, but this stuff is (in my non humble opinion) contrived junk.
