The Science Behind the Stories — ORIGINS: Tales of Human Evolution

This free curriculum guide is designed to help high school and college teachers incorporate science fiction into their classrooms. We help science teachers to do more writing and writing teachers to learn more science. The anthology around which we based the book (Hadley Rille Books, https://www.hrbpress.com) contains seven stories from different time periods, ranging from Australopithecus through human extinction.
