BioCoach activities allow students to visualize and apply their
understanding of biological concepts. During these practice activities,
students manipulate graphs, complete biological puzzles, and answer
questions. LabBench provides students with pre- and post-lab reviews.
Animations and interactive questions connect laboratory procedures to
biological principles. Designed for advanced students, these activities
correspond to the AP* Lab Manual and include sections on key concepts,
experiment design, analysis of results, as well as a lab quiz. The Glossary
is a comprehensive, online, easily accessible listing of definitions of the
key biological concepts and terms introductory students are likely to
encounter.
