Advanced Environmental Science by Carol Matthews, wins TEXTY Award from the Text and Academic Authors Assn.
Marine Biology is written by the same teacher-author as AP Environmental Science, Environmental Science, Freshwater and Aquatic Science. The Judge’s comment regarding the AP Environmental Science was: “Excellent work and certainly relevant! The student manual gives students the opportunity to see concepts in practice. This is probably the best material that I have seen on environmental science.”
