Description
Emphasis throughout on linking concepts to thinking and problem solving skills.
Twenty laboratory activities written in an informal style which is easily accessible and interesting to students with no previous background in Biology.
Focused on collaborative, small group activities that encourage student interactions and maximize laboratory resources.
Designed to provide an understanding of the basic principles of human anatomy and physiology, genetics and evolutionary change, ecology, and the impact of human actions on the environment.
Designed to run smoothly in large and small laboratory sections, each exercise is suitable for completion in two- or three-hour laboratory periods and can be divided to accommodate 90-minute sessions. The equipment and supplies needed are cost effective and easily accessible.
