Designed to support the flipped classroom method of teaching, Biology: Textbook and Activities for the Flipped Classroom introduces students to the fundamentals of biology. Each lesson in the textbook is complemented by a variety of active learning exercises and assessment questions. To promote interdisciplinary connections and big-picture thinking, students learn the historical, ethical, sociological, and technological implications of key concepts in biology. Over the course of 15 chapters and numerous activities, students learn the basics of scientific inquiry, atoms and molecules, DNA structure and replication, genetic mutations, and transcription and translation. They are introduced to Mendelian genetics, the connection between cell division and cancer, evolution, the immune system, and infectious diseases. The final module is dedicated to biotechnology, providing students a glimpse into gene cloning, DNA sequencing, and gene editing. Biology provides students with an immersive and engaging introduction to biology and life science. It is well suited to flipped biology courses, particular those for non-science majors.
