Publisher's Description of Integrated Science, Explorations Two Year Self-Study Online Course
This self-study course collates all 39 chapters of the Conceptual Integrated Science Explorations textbook into 5 units and a total of 39 lessons (one lesson per chapter). Recommended for grade levels 7 9. With a greater number of shorter lessons, this "Explorations" course is a less rigorous version of the CIS Full Version course. There is still ample material for two semesters of study. Along with a library of video tutorials and reading assignments, included are worksheets, simulations, study advice from the authors, automated quizzes with grade book, complete labs using household materials, and unit exams. This course provides a strong and enjoyable introduction to integrated science for the junior high school student. It also serves well as a precursor to our higher level Conceptual Physics or Conceptual Chemistry courses, which provide greater depth on a broader range of topics. While biology video lessons are still under development, this course is currently discounted from our regular "full version" courses. To learn more about this integrated science "explorations" course, download its users manual.
