    • Summary:"This book helps teachers shift the emphasis of high school biology curriculum away from "we need to learn about this topic in order to do well in class" to "we need to figure out why or how things happen in the world." Using the book's model-based inquiry (MBI) framework lets teachers create meaningful learning experiences for students as they strive to make sense of the world around them. Aligned with A Framework for K-12 Science Education and the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), the book's curriculum integrates disciplinary core ideas, crosscutting concepts, and science and engineering practices. The goal is to engage biology students in constructing, critiquing, revising, and testing models to explain real-world phenomena"-- Provided by publisher.
