Welcome to a set of computer activities and a research task on genetics counselling.

=//**Try this first- background**//= This is about the human genome and shows [|how DNA replicates] Explore the video on how t[|o sequence a genome]

For more about the [|genome go here]

Explore these sites and learn about the human pedigree - Once you have seen these sites answer the question below. [|Animation to watch Queen Victoria animation]
 * 1) A pedigree can be used to show who is married to who and who has a particular …………
 * 2) A pedigree is useful because…………
 * 3) Now watch the Queen Victoria animation below and check your answers to the questions above.

=//**This is the task**//= Copy the pdf to a USB disk so you can print it later - here it is -[|Genetics Counselling Project pages 1 to 3.pdf] Things to be careful about -
 * 1) Follow the time line (see below) - there will be no extension of time as the rest of the class is counting on you to be finished when they are.
 * 2) Make sure you develop the support materials - as these will help you answer the questions of your clients on the counselling day. Support materials are explained fully in the pdf you have downloaded.
 * 3) Make sure you have talked with your team and have been assigned jobs that you can do.
 * 4) See the time line below


 * ** Period ** || ** Work to complete ** ||

 * 2 || Research & develop support materials ||
 * 3 || Research & develop support materials ||
 * 4 || Research & develop support materials ||
 * 5 || Complete consultation ||

=//**How your work will be graded**//= Closer to the presentation date the marking rubric will be available for you to look at and check you have done all the parts. =How to use the flip cameras= On the day of your presentation you will be expected to take video footage of the interview for your team.

By viewing this video they will get an understanding of the disease you studied and the way you explained and helped the couple you counselled. =Gene technolgy and cloning= Do a search for information about a film called "Boys from Brazil" and a film called "the Sixth Day" How ia cloning part of the plot? - class discussion

Read and research information about Gene technology from here: [|genetic engineering] examine some of the posters and watch the animation

Prepare for a debate on genetechnology by reading this "[|Genetic engineering"]
