                               Help students develop and retain the skills

                               they need to do well on the exam.


                               Four active learning features within modules work together to teach, demonstrate,
                               and reinforce essential science practice skills.




                     Analyzing Statistics and Data boxes cover all the   Understanding questions and methods in the context

                     statistics and mathematical tools found in the AP    of actual scientific work provides students with a better
                     Biology curriculum. They also review important     foundation for applying science practices — enter
                     skills from prior courses such as working with     Practicing Science boxes. This feature evaluates key
                     scientific notation and percentages. Each box walks   experiments in the history of biology, while addressing
                     students through a practice problem and provides   the science practice of questions and methods with
                     a Your Turn problem to try. Further practice is    an in-depth look at research questions, experimental

                     Your Turn: Each Analyzing Statistics and Data box
                    provides an opportunity for students to practice the
                    relevant tools and gain confidence in real time.
