OPTIONAL - Cambridge International AS & A Level Biology Practical Workbook - CAMBRILEARN

Cambridge International AS & A Level Biology Practical Workbook Author/s: Mary Jones and Matthew Parkin For first examination from 2022, these resources meet the real needs of the biology classroom. Extensive research through lesson observations, teacher interviews and work with our online teacher community (the Cambridge Panel) means that this flexible range of resources meets the real teaching needs of the science classroom. This write-in workbook contains step-by-step guided investigations and practice questions for Cambridge International AS & A Level Biology teachers and students. Through practical investigation, it provides opportunities to develop skills– planning, identifying equipment, creating hypotheses, recording results, analysing data, and evaluating. The workbook is ideal for teachers who find running practical experiments difficult due to lack of time, resources or support. Sample data – if students can’t do the experiments themselves – and answers to the questions are in the teacher’s guide. Features: Guided investigations provide opportunities for students to practise their practical skills. Contains help for teachers setting up practical investigations in the classroom. For more detailed support with planning and troubleshooting issues, see the teacher’s resource. Practice questions give students the chance to test their knowledge and help build confidence in preparation for assessment Includes a skills chapter that focuses on essential science skills.
