Biological Science: Exploring the Science of Life responds to the key needs of lecturers and their students by placing a clear central narrative, carefully-structured active learning, and confidence with quantitative concepts and scientific enquiry central to its approach. Written by a team of dedicated and passionate academics, and shaped by feedback from over 55 institutions, its straightforward narrative, reinforced by key concept overview videos for every chapter, communicate key ideas clearly: the right information is provided at the right time, and at the right depth. Its pause and think features, self-check quizzes, and graded end of chapter questions, augmented by flashcards of key terms, directly support active learning. The combination of narrative text and learning features promote a rich, active learning experience: read, watch, and do.Its combination of Quantitative Toolkits, Scientific Process panels, and the Life and its Exploration chapters provide more insight and support than any other general biology text; they prepare students to engage with this quantitative and experimental discipline with confidence, and set them on a path for success throughout their future studies. With coverage that spans the full scale of biological science - from molecule to ecosystem - and with an approach that fully supports flexible, self-paced learning, Biological Science: Exploring the Science of Life will set you on a path towards a deeper understanding of the key concepts in biology, and a greater appreciation of biology as a dynamic experimental science.Digital formats and resourcesBiological Science: Exploring the Science of Life is available for students and institutions to purchase in a variety of formats.The enhanced ebook is enriched with features that offer extra learning support: www.oxfordtextbooks.co.uk/ebooks - Key concepts videos support students from the start of every chapter and as they make their way through every Module. - Self-check questions at the end of each chapter section give students quick and formative feedback, building their confidence and comprehension as they study and revise. - Quantitative skills video screencasts help students to master the foundational skills required by this discipline.- Interactive figures give students the control they need to step through, and gain mastery over, key concepts.- Per-chapter flashcard glossaries help students to recall the key terms and concepts on which further study can be built.

The only text to focus on study and communication skills specifically for bioscience students, helping them get the most out of their degree, and develop the skills and experience that will make them more employable after graduation. Written in an encouraging manner using biological examples, this book assists students as they transition to university studies and progress to employment. Readers are guided towards a greater understanding of what they need to do to make the most of resources available, how to approach assessment in a way that recognizes what they need to achieve, and how to reflect on their progress to maximize employability.Key features: Written by two award winning bioscience teachers and a career development specialist with a background in bioscience to offer expert guidance throughout. A particular emphasis on foundational skills that really make a difference to students: 'managing your time well', 'thinking critically', and 'developing yourself'.Biological examples throughout demonstrate the relevance of the skills being discussed to students' programme of study. The authors explain how to communicate ideas effectively across all required assessment formats, and how to prepare for and complete exams whilst maintaining wellbeing to help students succeed in their assessments. The flexible structure enables students to read the chapters in any order, tailoring their reading to the skills most relevant to them. New to this edition:'What I Wish I Knew Earlier' videos capture bioscience students reflecting on their university experience and sharing their key takeaways to help other students thrive. A fresh structure to the content, with new chapters including Chapter 5 'Getting yourself organized' and Chapter 12 'Key competencies: collaboration and critical thinking', which provide broader coverage and greater support than ever before. A discussion around the use of Generative AI in university provides students with insights into the benefits and drawbacks of this new technology with a focus on academic integrity and best practices.A greater focus on student wellbeing encourages students to balance their responsibilities in and outside of university. Digital formats and online resources:The 4th edition is available for students and institutions to purchase in a variety of formats: the e-book and Science Trove offer a mobile experience and convenient access along with student-created videos, additional poster examples, functionality tools, navigation features and links that offer extra learning support.
