COMPENDIUM REVIEW--CELLS (unit one)

This posting, along with the following four postings, represent what would be the total work you post for Unit One of the course. These five postings will include the following:
  • two compendium reviews
  • one ethical issue essay
  • the results of the online lab activities
  • your lab project writeup with photos.
It does not matter what order you post these assignments to your blog. But they must all be posted by the deadline date for that unit. Please plan ahead--these entries require a lot of time, especially the compendium reviews and the lab project.


Each compendium review posting will be its own blog entry like this one and the next one.

Be sure you include a table of contents or outline or concept map at the start. Then, paste in your entire review of that topic according to that outline. These postings form the core of what you are learning--they are very time-consuming. Be sure you give yourself enough time to do them by the due date for the unit.

Please read and follow the directions for doing the compendium reviews that are on the website main page and also where the compendium notebooks are assigned for each topic. [link]

COMPENDIUM REVIEW--GENETICS (unit one)

The second topic for Unit One is Genetics and the compendium review for that topic should be it posted to its own blog entry.

ETHICAL ISSUES ESSAY--unit one

Each ethical issue essay will also get its own blog posting. These take a little less time, but do need to be edited well in order to get an "exemplary" rating.

Be sure you read the website links related to that ethical issue posting and follow the directions on the website. [link]
