Charles Zaremba’s nickname is “Mr. Biology.” He is a nationally-known educator with an award-winning website that has had more than 1,000,000 visitors since 1997. As author of Introductory Biology, Zaremba has brought his award-winning skills to the development of a teacher-friendly, standards-based course that has been specially designed for the new or out-of-field teacher. The course presents the world of biology in the clear light of day without endless detail and abstraction. Twelve concise chapters focus students’ attention on key concepts and applications that cover all the national and/or applicable state standards. An easy-to-use daily pacing guide provides a roadmap for the instructor to reduce teacher preparation time, and ensures coverage of the required content. A daily lesson plan includes point-of-use content background for the teacher and classroom-tested teaching strategies to support successful delivery of the lesson. Outstanding daily class notes (available in full color PowerPoint or as overhead masters) are ready the first day of class. The student workbook contains lecture text, worksheets and laboratory pages. The coordinating teacher workbook includes examples and answers for each lab. The 34 labs use inexpensive materials available through local stores; a complete lab materials list (with sources for unusual materials) accompanies the text. Two unit tests are available for each unit, and quizzes are integrated into each unit. Two final exams are included.
Testimonials:
I teach Biology at a California high school with two other teachers. In California we have subject specific state wide standardized tests. All three of us had a 20% pass rate for our Biology students until we started using the Teaching Point Biology materials by Charles Zaremba. I used it the first year and the other two teachers were the “control group.” My students had a 50% pass rate that year vs. no change for the other two teachers not using the materials. I would recommend these materials highly for any teachers who find themselves in difficult or new teaching situations. All three of us are now using Zaremba’s materials. – Tony Herron
“I have reviewed your book and it has not only been helpful, but inspirational as well. I am writing this letter to thank you for creating a source that I and others like myself will be able to use thoughout our teaching careers.” — Jacqueline M. Gerbermann
