The Flexibility to Meet Your State Integrated Science Frameworks

An Introductory Biology Supplemental Unit

Active Biology's chapters follow the same proven learning approach to science as Active Physics. They were designed and built on the same research-based instructional strategy that weaves together science content with a pedagogical approach that ensures increased student motivation, understanding and performance. The Chapters were derived from materials that were originally developed by Biological Sciences Curriculum Study (BSCS) and repurposed into the Active Learning format which is strongly correlated with what we want students to know and to be able to do. Active Biology, along with Active Physics, Active Chemistry and EarthComm, gives you the flexibility to create an integrated course of your choice.

In Active Biology, students are introduced to biology concepts on an appropriate basis as they explore chapters like "A Vote for Ecology," and "A Highway Through the Past."
