*Emphasis throughout on linking concepts to thinking and problem solving skills. *Twenty laboratory activities written in an informal style which is easily accessible and interesting to students with no previous background in Biology. *Focused on collaborative, small group activities that encourage student interactions and maximize laboratory resources. *Designed to provide an understanding of the basic principles of human anatomy and physiology, genetics and evolutionary change, ecology, and the impact of human actions on the environment. *Designed to run smoothly in large and small laboratory sections, each exercise is suitable for completion in two- or three-hour laboratory periods and can be divided to accommodate 90-minute sessions. The equipment and supplies needed are cost effective and easily accessible.
