Comment on "Does Biology Class Really Matter"
This piece brings up a very interesting point given that most students ask themselves this question while attending school. "Does Biology Class Really Matter" shows how a high school Biology class can affect our views on the environment when we grow up and can even help us help the environment in our own way.
The voice of the narrator is clear and invites the listener to keep listening. The technique is also good and the interviews add to the piece and make it more real. Overall the piece flows nicely and is a good way for us students to realize that those "boring classes" can actually affect our lives in a positive way in the future.
