Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I have been teaching nonmajors biology at the University of Oklahoma since 1997 and over that time have encountered many students who fear science in general and biology in particular. The complexity, abstractions, and unfamiliar terms can seem overwhelming at first, but with practice, I know that anyone can think like a scientist. Learning to think scientifically is important well beyond passing your biology class. After all, scientific issues confront you every day as you navigate your life and your social media accounts. How do you know if a claim about climate change is scientific? Will you be able to identify misinformation and interpret graphs during the next global health crisis? This book will teach you not only to understand the scientific terms you encounter but also to distinguish "good science" from unscientific claims. I've created the following features to help you make the transition from memorizing facts to understanding concepts-from accepting scientific claims to analyzing them for yourself. These tools will help you to pass your class and to be an informed citizen"--

This book was released on 2015-11-19 with total page 1240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biology: How Life Works was written in response to recent and exciting changes in biology, education, and technology with the goal of helping students to think like biologists. The text, visual program, and assessments were developed together to provide students with the best resources to gain an understanding of modern biology. Content is selected carefully, is integrated to illustrate the connections between concepts, and follows six themes that are crucial to biology: the scientific method, chemical and physical principles, cells, evolution, ecological systems, and human impact. The second edition continues this approach, but includes expanded coverage of ecology, new in-class activities to assist instructors in active teaching, new pedagogical support for visual synthesis maps, and expanded and improved assessment.

Download or read book Principles of Life written by David M. Hillis and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2012 with total page 1061 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For sample chapters, a video interview with David Hillis, and more information, visit www.whfreeman.com/hillispreview. Sinauer Associates and W.H. Freeman are proud to introduce Principles of Life. Written in the spirit of the reform movement that is reinvigorating the introductory majors course, Principles of Life cuts through the thicket of excessive detail and factual minutiae to focus on what matters most in the study of biology today. Students explore the most essential biological ideas and information in the context of the field’s defining experiments, and are actively engaged in analyzing research data. The result is a textbook that is hundreds of pages shorter (and significantly less expensive) than the current majors introductory books.

Book excerpt: "For years, biology instructors have recognized that we need to turn away from teaching methods that reward students who memorize and regurgitate superficial knowledge. Instead, we need to emphasize deeper learning that requires students to understand and apply course content. This idea is precisely what I have tried to achieve since I started teaching at the University of Oklahoma in 1997, and it has been a guiding principle in the creation of my books and digital material as well. This edition retains what users have always loved about this book: the art program, readable narrative, handy study tips, Investigating Life essays, tutorial animations, and concept maps. In this edition, I have explicitly connected the unit-wide Survey the Landscape concept map at the start of each chapter to the more detailed, chapter-specific Pull It Together concept map at each chapter's end. Not only does each Survey the Landscape now direct the student's attention to the Pull It Together concept map, but the latter includes a specially labeled question directing the reader's attention back to the Survey the Landscape's "big picture" view. The objective remains the same: to help students see the "forest" and the "trees." One way to motivate students to learn is to help them see that biology is all around them: in food, medicine, pets, water, gardens, parks, and even vacant lots. For students interested in environmental quality, biology forms a foundation for understanding issues ranging in scale from the quality of local tap water to the changing global climate. The Burning Question and Apply It Now boxes support my efforts to help readers learn why biology matters. Each chapter now also includes one or more Scientific Literacy questions. These new thought questions at the end of each chapter will help students practice thinking like a scientist about relevant social, political, or ethical issues"--
