Our new PH BLAST: Biology Animations and Simulations Tool for our non-majors biology titles feature: Stunning graphics and animation to WAKE UP your students! Strong colors and contrast to show up well when projected. Flexible controls that allow the instructor to control the presentation rather than the presentation controlling the lecture.

Interactive features to encourage student questioning and engagement. Large labels that can be read across the classroom.Mitosis | Diffusion | Greenhouse Effect/Global Warming | Transcription/Translation | Cell Surface Area and Volume Calculator For a complete list of the animations and simulations that will be available, please click here.

Common Core Tips - Literacy in Science. In the last article, Dissecting Science Literacy Standards, we focused on common core standard 1, citing specific evidence within technical texts, which including some strategies for making documents in your curriculum align to this goal. This article is going to focus on standard 2, which states “Determine the central ideas or conclusion of a text; summarize complex concepts, processes, or information presented in a text by paraphrasing them in simpler but still accurate terms” Let’s break this down into what is really expected of students. Based on this standard, students should be able to: 1. determine the central ideas of a text 2. summarize complex concepts, processes, or information in a text 3. paraphrase text To address this standard, students should be reading their textbook, news articles, essays, novels, and short stories. 1.

The assignment described above is something I do with advanced biology, and it is not something I would do with every class or even on a regular basis. 2. BioCoach Activities - Pearson.
