General Biology, Novare's high school biology text, combines up-to-date science with a Christian worldview as well as the mastery-based educational philosophy for which Novare is known. Chapters start at the atomic level and progress to ever-larger scales: cells, genes, microorganisms, plants, animals, and human organ systems. Each chapter includes straightforward learning objectives, exercises that call for both clear articulation of thoughts and full-sentence answers, and an organization of topics that steadily builds. The final chapters of the book survey ecology and the theory of evolution. Like all Novare texts, mastery-based learning methods are an essential part of General Biology, propelling students not only to learn but also to substantially retain the content for years after completing the course. The book succinctly and logically covers a wide array of information in a modest number of pages. Vivid, appealing graphics draw students into mature engagement with the content. 536 pages, hardcover. Grade 10-12.
