Come explore the fascinating study of LIFE!

• Students will embark on a comprehensive survey of God’s creation by exposure to different fields in the biological sciences - from the study of the fundamental unit of life in cell biology to the understanding of the human body in anatomy and physiology. These provide basic tools to investigate what makes up living things, how they work, and how they relate with one another and the physical world.
• Opposing worldviews are discussed throughout the course so students might see the truth of Scripture in light of scientific study. Theories of biological origins, current advances in biotechnology, environmental issues, and their social implications are presented from secular and biblical perspectives.
• In addition to lectures and class discussions, other activities include lab experiments, microscopy, and dissections - all designed to enhance comprehension of concepts learned.
• There will be opportunities to hone research and oral presentation skills in preparation for collegiate work: a persuasive outline on creation vs. evolution and two short scientific papers, one on a biotechnology topic of their choice (fall semester) and a human body disease/disorder (spring semester).
• Special projects will include collection and classification of leaves and wildflowers to develop in students a greater awareness of beauty, order, and design in nature.
• Parents will partner with Mrs. Miller to ensure their student’s success. Please check the class website weekly and oversee student’s homework and completion of assigned tasks.  For more information on the class, visit:  https://sites.google.com/view/prepbiology-lmiller.
