 HELLO My Dear Advanced Placement Biology Students!

bulletI LOVE the Campbell Text, it will be a wonderful learning tool for you.  I especially like the short vignette that begins each chapter.  The authors are presenting you with a timely and relevant story and asking you an excellent question as a way of introducing the topic and its importance.  Please take the time to read this excellent chapter appetizers!!  I like the way things are described and the organization of the text.  We will cover the material in a sequential order as we work through the text together.  I anticipate being able to cover the book cover to cover.  We will hit the ground running, looking forward to it. 
bulletIs it better to read ahead and be ready to ask questions in class or go to class and read the text as a follow-up to the lesson? You need to answer that question for yourself, you know which is a better way for you to learn.  Having said that, I think many students have found reading after the material is covered in class works well for material that is new to them.  Just know, you must read the text at some point and this book, I am happy to say, is very well written in terms of brevity, clarity, and interest.
