Bill overview
This bill changes Michigan’s science curriculum to require schools to teach students about human development, specifically focusing on pregnancy. It mandates that biology standards and guidelines include information about the development of a fetus inside the uterus. The bill also requires schools to use visual aids, such as ultrasound videos and computer animations, to illustrate these developmental stages. This aims to provide students with a more comprehensive understanding of human biology.
