- Summary:
- The Teaching Challenge is the series where celebrities find out just how tough it is to be a teacher. Professor Steve Jones has built up a formidable reputation for his work on genetic diversity. He has written bestselling books on apparently complex subjects such as evolution and genes.His ability to popularise science is tested to the limit as he addresses an unfamiliar audience, a class of 10-year-olds at Hotham Primary School in Putney, London. What transpires is a masterclass in teaching. Enlisting the help of fifty live snails, Professor Jones leaves his young pupils enchanted, and wiser, than many adults about the importance of genetic diversity.
