Building a chemical background for the study of biological sciences

This creative project consisted of the development of a workbook entitled, Building a Chemical Background for the Study of Biological Sciences. The workbook has been created for use in advanced high school level science classes or as a reference in undergraduate college biology courses. The workbook covers the following subject: atomic structures, covalent bonding, acids and bases, energy, water, hydrocarbons, functional groups, carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acids.Field-testing was done on the workbook by one advanced high school chemistry class and two college freshman level biology classes. The percent gain for the high school field-testing was 68.9%, while the percent gain for the college experimental group was 22.7% and the percent gain for the college control group was 20.9%.
