Integrated Learning Each module integrates text, high quality figures, interactive exercises, simulations, video, and assessments into a single, rich flow of learning for the student.
Customization Instructors can easily customize Principles of Biology by rearranging or deleting any of the 200 modules, adding their own material, and turning on and off particular sections within the modules.
Anytime, Everywhere Access All content in Principles of Biology is fully accessible on desktop and laptop computers, mobile phones, and tablet computers, ensuring that you and your students can take advantage of the material wherever you are.
Real-time Gradebook Each of the 200 modules in Principles of Biology concludes with a multiple-choice online test of key concepts covered. The results from this test feed automatically into a gradebook, allowing instructors to track how their class as a whole is grasping the material . . . down the level of individual questions and learning objectives.
