Designed for courses that use the "flipped" method, A Primer of
Flipped Plant Biology prepares students to learn by presenting
pre-lecture concepts and information for use in conjunction with
clickers. Because students enter class ready to apply and develop
what they have learned from the text, concepts can then be fully
mastered during class sessions. The primer begins with an
introduction to the flipping approach and educational clickers or
interactive PowerPoints. Once students are familiar with how to use
the text, they transition toward content mastery. They study the
scientific method and define what makes a plant. They learn about
the four major types of plants and their anatomy. They explore the
growth of trees and the ways plants get nutrients. The book also
discusses plant reproduction, plant responses to various
environments, and plant evolution. The final chapters address
Mendel's work with plant genetics, DNA technology, and the future
of plants including potential genetic modification. Successfully
blending textbook and technology, A Primer of Flipped Plant Biology
is suitable for courses in introductory plant biology for majors in
the field.
