This activity is based on the fictional ‘Greenridge Research Centre’ - which tests drugs on Beagle dogs with the hope of finding cures to serious diseases. Included in the download are character profiles of 8 characters who have an opinion on whether this centre should be closed down or remain open. There are four views on each side of the argument, including two different Christian perspectives.
The Teacher Notes give a detailed description of 2 class activities that can be used in conjunction with these character profiles to get students thinking about the pros and cons of vivisection and animal rights. There is also a set of extension questions which challenge students to think about the ethical and philosophical issues vivisection raises.
Also included in this download are two worksheets to be used in connection with the two activities which will support and scaffold the learning.
