Synopsis:

"BioInquiry" is an NSF-sponsored, beta-tested content reform and content-delivery reform approach to introductory biology. The chief content reform is that chemistry is no longer front-loaded; instead, relevant chemistry is integrated when it supports biological principles. This text provides a flexible learning system in which CD, text and Web materials are combined. The result is an integration of various media to help students using varying learning techniques gain the most from their biology courses.

From the Back Cover: Welcome to the fascinating world of biology. Learning about living things is like piecing together a complex puzzle. BioInquiry: Making Connections in Biology, a National Science Foundation-supported project (DUE #97-52454), was designed to help you assemble these pieces, to see their connections, and to reveal the beautiful and compelling pictures they create. The text, CD, and web site were developed together from the start to create an engaging, active learning experience. You'll take a virtual tour of the cell, travel with Darwin to the Galįpagos Islands, transcribe DNA, perform powerful experiments, and link to the latest biological research on web sites around the world. You'll experience for yourself the profound biological discoveries that forever changed the way we think about life. Enjoy your explorations!
