Apologia Educational Ministries, Inc. presents the second edition of its Exploring Creation With Biology course. The first edition has been used by thousands of students in all 50 states and 13 other countries. Now, this award-winning biology course is even better!

This course is designed to be the student's first high school science course. Exploring Creation With Biology is a college-prep biology course that provides a detailed introduction to the methods and concepts of general biology. Heavily emphasizing the vocabulary of biology, it provides the student with a strong background in the scientific method, the five-kingdom classification scheme, microscopy, biochemistry, cellular biology, molecular and Mendelian genetics, evolution, dissection, and ecosystems. It also provides a complete survey of the five kingdoms in Creation. Please note that this course does not contain a discussion of human anatomy and physiology. Most college biology professors do not consider human anatomy and physiology to be a part of a solid, college prep biology course. Students who take and understand this course will be very well-prepared for a tough university biology course.

Give your high school students a fun and helpful way to build study skills while reinforcing their lessons from Apologia's Exploring Creation with Biology, 2nd Edition textbook (sold-separately). The simple layout integrates graphics, simple charts, and modern fonts that provide a clean, fresh workspace, while the textbook chapter sections or module numbers referenced by each page or question will keep everyone on track.

This accompanying student notebook journal includes 16 modules that correspond to the 16 modules in the text. This interactive resource includes graphic organizers; "On Your Own" questions (with room to answer them); study guide questions; optional fill-in-the-blank module summaries; diagrams to label; and lots of lined (Cornell-system) note-taking pages specifically designed for students to create their own convenient notebook to study and prepare for tests. Lab report forms for each experiment in the textbook's module are also provided. The back of the book includes a "Designing an Experiment" section that leads students through the scientific process.

A complete daily schedule breaks down the text, notebook pages, tests, and experiments into weekly and daily blocks; following the schedule will enable students to finish the course in 34 weeks. 604 pages, softcover, spiralbound. The answers to the Study Guide questions, Summary questions, and tests are provided in the "Solutions and Test for Exploring Creation with Biology" book (sold-separately).

This solutions and tests set accompanies Apologia's Exploring Creation with Biology, 2nd Edition curriculum. The softcover solutions manual contains answers to the module study guides, module summaries, and includes tests and test solutions. The tests booklet contain the same tests that are in the solutions manual, but are presented in perforated-booklet format to make them easy to tear out and give to your student.

The MP3 Audio CD contains a complete audio recording of the textbook read by Kathleen Wile. Although the audio for the complete text and "On Your Own" problems is included on the CD, the audio for the study guides, tests, and answers is not included. This is the perfect accompaniment to the book for students who are auditory learners, slow readers, or have other learning disabilities that make reading difficult. This is an MP3 format CD.

The instructional DVD brings an experienced teacher into your home to supplement your biology course. Apologia author and marine biologist Sherri Seligson will win your teen over with explanations and on-location footage from the Caribbean and Iceland. With more than twenty hours of instruction, this DVD also contains video presentations of every experiment from the textbook so students will know what their results should look like before performing the experiment themselves. There are 16 lectures, one for each module.

DVD System Requirements: Windows Media Player for PCs and Flip4Mac for Macs. DVD-drive and programs capable of playing .wmv files and .pdf files. 1280 x 1024 screen resolution. This is a DVD-ROM, and will only play on a computer, NOT a standard DVD-player.

Easily create your own lapbook with this pre-printed, ready-to-go, loose-leaf set of pages!

This set of lapbooking pages accompanies the sold-separately Apologia Exploring Creation with Biology, 2nd Edition. Most lapbooking products are loaded with crafts and "artsy" projects that Middle and High School students are often moving beyond--however, they still enjoy a hands-on experience! Combining lapbooking with journaling, the Lapbook Journal is divided into 3 sections, all kept within the same (not included) 3" three-ring-binder. Simply organize these pages and you're ready to start learning!

The first section is the "Journal" section, which includes space to answer all of the "On Your Own" questions within each module. These pages are "Notebooking" style, and the questions are printed out next to space for the student to write the answers. These pages may include decorative borders, graphics, or diagrams that are related to the topic about which the student will be writing.

The second section is the "Lapbook" section, which is similar to traditional lapbooks, but without folders in which to place the booklets. The student cuts, folds, and glues the booklets onto cardstock pages within the binder. All of the booklets represent the "Study Guide" questions at the end of each module.

The third section is "Lab Journal." This section includes general lab forms for each lab within the book.

Eliminate the dull and tedious task of writing the questions and answers into a traditional notebook! Why not step up to a "Lapbook Journal," and see your students improve their memory of the material and actually enjoy their studies? A wonderful way to review and exhibit work, this binder replaces any other notebook that they may have otherwise been kept (other than their record of their lab experiments).

This printed set includes the actual, printed pages (and is not a CD-ROM). Pages are printed on the recommended colored paper, with some thicker when appropriate; pages are already three-hole-punched. This stack of pages is approximately 3.5" thick.
