Lab Book for AQA AS Biology new Spec 2015

(11)
This resource is designed to be printed and bound as a Lab Book which covers the AT and mathematical skills for AQA AS Biology 2015. It summarises the requirements for practical work and provides students with a range of practicals and a tool for teachers to assess progress and provide evidence of practical work. In line with the CPAC requirements it details the six “required practicals” and provides methods for a further 21 practicals, covering the AT skills, which will provide a minimum of 15% of the AS exam marks. Mathematical skills are covered and the Lab Book has sections of A-level theory and practice questions. It has pages for students to make tables, graphs, conclusions and evaluations and should help them to consolidate theoretical concepts and apply their knowledge and understanding in practical situations as well as assisting them to develop investigative skills. There are a number of research and planning tasks. Risk assessments are provided for guidance only.

Encouraged by sales of over 100 AS Lab Books, this new 409-page resource covers the CPAC requirements for the complete AQA A-Level Biology 7402 course, as well as for AS 7401.. <br /> The Lab Book gives students opportunities to learn and gain competence in the Apparatus &amp; Techniques, Practical &amp; Mathematical, Practical Competency and Practical skills, to gain at least 15% of the marks in both the AS and A-Level examination papers. <br /> It provides tasks for research, planning investigations, writing methods and risk assessments, producing tables, drawing graphs/bar charts, and analysing and evaluating their findings, in all cases using the AQA glossary of terms with their definitions.<br /> In line with the CPAC requirements it details the 12 required practicals, with a further 36 practical opportunities with full methods. Sample results are provided for the less reliable practicals. A template for self, peer and teacher assessment follows each research and investigation task, with a summary table in which to track skills progression. Opportunities for development of mathematical skills are presented, as are sections of theory and exam questions relevant to the investigations and focusing on topics that are new or have a greater focus in the new specification. There are ‘cut &amp; stick’ activities and a powerful DNA sequence analysis task.

<p>This resource is designed to be printed and bound as a Lab Book which covers the AT and mathematical skills for Edexcel AS and A level Biology A (Salters-Nuffield) from 2015. It details the requirements for practical work that are necessary for CPAC and that will be examined in Paper 3 of the full A level qualification, with a comprehensive guide to the vocabulary used in the CPAC and in the exam papers. It has detailed guidance on researching and referencing, planning a method, recording and representing results and in concluding and evaluating a procedure and how to improve it. The booklet has information of mathematical skills, including how to choose, carry out and interpret the outcome of statistical tests and uses examiners comments to specify exactly which skills students could be asked to use in exams. An appendix which can be used method by method gives detailed protocols for the 19 core practicals, preceded by links that students could use to plan their own method if that is what the teacher requires. The SNAB methods are reproduced in the second appendix for convenience.<br /> I have sold over 100 copies of my AQA Biology A level Lab Book with 9 of 11 reviews giving it 5 stars.</p>
