Publisher's Description of Conceptual Biology, Honors One Year Full Self-Study Online Course

Presented in a storytelling manner, Conceptual Biology maps out the overarching and interconnected concepts of the science of life. We begin with an in-depth review of the chemistry needed to understand and appreciate the molecular nature of life. From this foundation, we explore the nature of cells, genetics, and inheritance, which sets the stage for “getting” evolution and the diversity of life. From there the journey continues into human anatomy and physiology culminating in an exploration of populations, communities, and ecosystems of which we humans are an integral part. Throughout, the concepts of biology are connected to a student’s daily life with relevant examples from medicine, nutrition, health, and biotechnology. Our main goal: nurturing a student’s curiosity and respect for the wonders of our living world.

The biology course is the only one that includes the PDF textbook, which is printable as well as accessible to screen readers and tablets. All courses include a video library, study advice, worksheets, interactive simulations, automated quizzes, and homework assignments tracked within an automated gradebook, unit exams, and instructor support.
