2 Description of Course Course Title: Biology I, College Preparatory - # 401 Description: This course is designed for college preparatory students. Students will study the interrelationships between the living and non-living world. The topics will include cells (structure, function, reproduction, and interactions with environment) and ecology. The unity and diversity of organisms and development of species will be studied within the context of classification, based on heredity and molecular genetics. Goals: Students will be able to identify the interdependencies among living things and their environment. This understanding will be built through learning the basic characteristics shared by all organisms: cells, cell processes, energy relationships, and genetics. Students will use fundamental genetic concepts to identify the factors that contribute to the changes in organisms that have occurred over long periods of time. Students will leave this course with an appreciation of the living world and their significant place in it. equirements: Passing grade in 8 th Grade Science and/or Integrated Science. Text: Campbell, Williamson, and Heyden, Biology Exploring ife, 1 st edition, Pearson/ Prentice Hall, 2004 Key to evels of Achievement (isted with each learning objective) Awareness (A): earning (): nderstanding (): einforcement (): Students are introduced to concepts, forms, and patterns. Students are involved in a sequence of steps and practice activities which involved further development and allow evaluation of process. Students demonstrate ability to apply acquired concepts and skills to individual assignments and projects on an independent level. Students maintain and broaden understanding of concepts and skills to accomplish tasks at a greater level of sophistication.
