Essay Problem
Your reflection essay should respond to one of the following sets of discussion questions:
• What did you find important and/or interesting in the trial process, as reenacted in Judgment Day (e.g., the role of expert testimony)? Why?
• Nussbaum and the film address misunderstandings surrounding the term 'theory' (e.g., "evolution is only a theory"). Which definition of 'scientific theory' (endorsed by the readings or the film) did you find more (or less) convincing?
• What was found to be unconstitutional in the Kitzmiller v. Dover Area School District case? According to Judge Jones' decision (as explained in the film and the Nussbaum reading), how was the Establishment Clause violated?
• What are the steps that Nussbaum suggests would help to moderate the controversy around teaching evolution? Do you agree?
The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
