Description:
In this course, the student will study the science of life. The student will explore the idea that living things are extremely diverse in form, yet are unified by certain core characteristics that they all share. In learning about these core characteristics, the student will be able to critically evaluate data and information related to biological problems, connect many ideas to the student's own life, and see the world in a new way. This Honors level course includes ample opportunities for the student to engage in open-ended extension activities and independent research and demonstrate critical thinking skills.
