Note 8/13/11I've updated the registration for the Campbell book. The link on the side menu and the log in info will now work. If (with apologies to Rudyard Kipling) If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on the teacher; If you can trust the teacher’s faith in you, When you are doubting yourself; If you can work and not be too tired by working, And do the work because it helps you learn, And not because it will be graded. Or because it is required;
If you can think-and not give up because you don’t know something; If you can meet hard tests and independent projects with triumph and disaster And treat those two results just the same; If you can hear that biology truths are messy and not always true, That thinking biology is merely facts and terms is a trap for fools, And the teacher’s job is not to supply truths But to challenge your mind and help you develop tools;
And risk it on one answer to an unfamiliar question, And get it wrong but learn from that And feel satisfied that you did; If you can force yourself to take ownership of your learning To truly learn long after you’ve been accepted into college, And so not give up when there is nothing in it for you Except the Will to develop more sophisticated understanding;
Or ask questions of wonder or confusion or ‘possiblies’; If you can recall your learning from last year or last week And apply it to new situations and grow new synapses; If you can believe that deeply understanding 70% of the concepts Is better than knowing 100% of the terms; If can believe that you own your learning in class and out And tutors or looking up answers will not help on tests; Yours is deeper understanding of biology and all that’s in it, And-which is more-you’ll be an AP Scholar my student!
What we're up to...Welcome to the new AP Bio web site. This site is new this year and I'll be creating it as we go. I'll use this page for announcements and thoughts. You can use the links on the side to check out course related materials and some interesting web sites we'll be using throughout the year. Below are links to some assignments and rubrics as well as unit objectives. There are links to many biology resources on the Bio Web page. I'm very much looking forward to this year. I spent the summer working on developing synthetic biology materials for our use this year. Check out the BioBuilding link to learn more about how I spent my summer.
