《地球系統化學》是根據加州高中三門課程模型設計和編寫的。它也適合將地球科學與化學相結合的 NGSS 一致的州。這個基於現象的標題採用三維方法來提供引人入勝、相關且嚴謹的教學計劃。與 BIOZONE 非綜合系列的較傳統方法不同，綜合系列提供基於 5E 並以學生相關的現象和問題為基礎的學習體驗。
特點和優點
採用 5E 教學週期的基於現象的方法，與學生學習科學的方式一致。
設置教學序列提供了書籍結構，從而實現了整個程式的無縫導航。
CA NGSS 三個維度的全面整合使學生能夠透過使用科學和工程實踐以及應用跨學科概念來加深對學科核心思想的理解。
活動為學生提供了多種機會，讓他們利用第一手經驗來解釋現象並開發工程解決方案來解決相關問題。
形成性評估和總結性評估涉及所有三個方面。
大力支持數學能力和計算思維。
整個過程中都融入了加州環境原則和概念。
透過科學與工程實踐和跨學科概念支持對科學本質的理解。
透過 BIOZONE 的資源中心支援線上學習，包括視訊、電子表格模型、網路連結和 3D 模型。也可透過 BIOZONE Academy 取得線上課程。
Chemistry in the Earth System has been designed and written following the High School Three-Course Model for California. It will also suit NGSS-aligned states integrating Earth Science with Chemistry. This phenomena-based title takes a three-dimensional approach to provide an engaging, relevant, and rigorous program of instruction. Departing from the more traditional approach of BIOZONE’s Non-Integrated Series, the Integrated Series offers a learning experience based on the 5 Es and anchored in student-relevant phenomena and problems.
Features and Benefits
A phenomena-based approach employing the 5E instructional cycle, aligning with how students learn science.
Set Instructional Sequences provide the book structure, enabling seamless navigation through the program.
Full integration of the three dimensions of the CA NGSS enables students to deepen understanding of Disciplinary Core Ideas through their use of Science and Engineering Practices and application of Crosscutting Concepts.
Activities provide multiple opportunities for students to use first-hand experience to explain phenomena and develop engineering solutions to solve relevant problems.
Formative and summative assessments address all three dimensions.
Proficiency in mathematics and computational thinking are strongly supported.
The California Environmental Principles and Concepts are incorporated throughout.
Understandings about the Nature of Science are supported through the Science and Engineering Practices and Crosscutting Concepts.
Online learning supported through BIOZONE’s resource hub, featuring videos, spreadsheet models, weblinks, and 3D models. Online courses also available through BIOZONE Academy.
