Darwin and Evolution

Comments (0)

This main unit in the Ideas and Evidence pack from the Pupil Researcher Initiative is about how new scientific ideas become accepted. In the past, there was much opposition to a new idea if it contradicted the religious views that people held. This made it hard for the new idea to become accepted. A good example of this was Darwin’s theory about evolution.
