1 BIOLOGY 1 COURSE SYLLABUS A General Individualized Education Plan (GIEP) is developed annually which defines the student s program for the year and includes goals, objectives and evaluation procedures based on core curricula, enrichment, community-based experiences and independent study projects. The curriculum for each class follows an appropriate sequencing of tasks from teacher-led foundation activities to small group creative problem solving tasks to culminating independent study projects. The curriculum, along with the GPAs of each student, determines the specially designed instruction for each student and delineates the exact activities for each course. THE STUDY OF BIOLOGY Biology is the study of life and the interactions between living things and their nonliving environment. The concepts you will be learning are integrated with one another. The science of biology is one of ever-increasing exploration and discovery and the text attempts to link biology and chemistry by concentrating on the biochemical processes and molecular biology. In studying biology, it is very important that you keep up with the coursework as it develops. Understanding biological terms will greatly enhance your understanding of the concepts presented. Use of the publisher s website will give you opportunities to reinforce concepts presented in class and further expand your knowledge and understanding of those concepts. Lab work and lab reports are an integral part of this course. STANDARDS These standards have been adopted by the for science students in Grades K-12. Your Biology course will help you to meet these standards. 1. All students explain how scientific principles of chemical, physical, and biological phenomena have developed and relate them to real-world situations. 2. All students demonstrate knowledge of basic concepts and principles of physical, chemical, biological and earth sciences. 3. All students use and master materials, tools and processes of major technologies, which are applied in economic and civic life. 4. All students explain the relationships among science, technology and society. 5. All students construct and evaluate scientific and technological systems using models to explain or predict results. 6. All students develop and apply skills of observation, data collection, analysis, pattern recognition, prediction and scientific reasoning in designing and conducting experiments and solving technological problems. 7. All students evaluate advantages, disadvantages and ethical implications associated with the impact of science and technology on current and future life.
2 8. All students evaluate the impact on current and future life of the development and use of varied energy forms, natural and synthetic materials, and production and processing of food and other agricultural products. 9. All students demonstrate basic computer literacy, including word-processing, software applications, and the ability to access the global information infrastructure, using current technology. COURSE MATERIALS Course materials for Biology include the reference textbook: Biology by Kenneth R. Miller and Joseph Levine. (Prentice Hall. Copyright 2006 by Pearson Education INC.). CD Rom: Interactive Textbook PROCEDURES FOR ASSESSING YOUR PROGRESS Your progress in meeting the goals and expectations of Biology 1 will be assessed in a variety of ways. Examples of assessments could include quizzes, homework, laboratory reports, tests and other assessments as selected by your teacher. Each semester there will be an assessment based on what you have learned. STUDENT REQUIREMENTS AND EXPECTED LEVELS OF ACHIEVEMENT As a student taking Biology, you will be expected to: Attend class daily. Participate in class activities. Study materials presented in class in the reading activities. Carry out laboratory activities and submit laboratory reports. Participate in discussions concerning class and laboratory experiences. Show evidence of achieving the standards. Maintain a notebook of class work and class materials. Design, implement, and present a project that has been approved by your biology teacher. Maintain a GPA that is consistent with the standards set by the program. CLASS DECORUM Labs cannot allow food or drinks open for consumption in the lab. Labs are expensive to the taxpayer and require respect for the equipment, Students are to clean up after a lab or classroom activity Safety First!! Talking out of turn is discouraged as is getting out of the seat without permission
3 SCIENCE SKILLS OBJECTIVES Upon completing Biology 1 students will be able to: Ask and answer scientific questions. Gather and organize information. Understand the relevance of science. Evaluate evidence. Recognize and be familiar with the methods of science. Record and interpret data. Consider and evaluate evidence. Make inferences. Demonstrate your understanding of scientific concepts. Appreciate the diversity of life and the dynamic nature of science. Conduct ethical analyses. Explain the relationships between living systems and the environment. Propose and test hypotheses. Demonstrate your ability to conduct a full scientific inquiry. ASSIGNMENT CALENDER Students are required to maintain a notebook and assignment calendar. The course syllabus must be the first document in their notebooks. It tells the weekly assignments, the tests and the class rules and regulations. Teacher contact information is also available at the beginning of the document HOMEWORK All assignments are to be given the same for each class for each chapter and for each week The highly fluid nature of our schedule this year will test the strategy and probably more work will have to be done at home than usual. Student s regularly assigned work is first required before labs can be complete or even begun.
