   Check your POGIL; have stamped
   POGIL: Selection and speciation reviewed /PPT same

2. PPT: Other mechanisms of change

HW: • Notes & Q: 16.1
• Buffet: Define vocabulary: all terms, plus underlined greek/latin roots
    Best practice: read multiple definitions, write original one; if you use definitions already in Quizzlet, choose multiple for the same term for your flashcard set, so you do not get 'stuck' recognizing one memorized definition
• Quiz Thursday: matching terms and definitions, applying math 
   Presumed skills: mode, median, etc metrics; percent; percent change (you can use the IS formula sheet).
   On formula sheet: mean, rate, SD & SE

• Final lab paper will be due after I read/give feedback (please be patient) and you edit
