This lesson outline stimulates A-level students to engage in {{teachtag|discussion}}, develop their {{teachtag|reasoning}} skills and increase their awareness of the {{topictag|ethics|bioethical}} issues involved in human reproduction. 

Background texts and open-ended {{teachtag|questioning}} about human reproduction, contraception and IVF are provided as the stimulus.
