Biblically-Sound Biology DVDs
In the Christian home school realm, too often what appeals about a product is its religiosity, not its excellence. While you know that you cannot do an honest job of teaching biology unless you use a resource that is both scientifically-accurate and God-glorifying, many times a teaching parent may have to sacrifice one for the other.
First-place winner in 2004
Not so with Biology 101. The preview short From Genesis to Genes was the first-place winner in the Creation Category at the 2004 San Antonio Independent Christian Film Festival. Now this four-DVD version is available to teach your entire family high-school-level biology in a systematic way.
Scientifically accurate
Developed and hosted by homeschooling father, Multnomah Bible College graduate, and fifteen-year veteran filmmaker Wes Olson, Biology 101 approaches teaching biology by classifying all of life according to the days of creation. Individual segments include classification, plants, aquatic creatures, avian creatures, land animals, mankind, cells, and genetics. Upon its completion, it was submitted to the Institute of Creation Research, where it was intensely scrutinized and was found to be scientifically accurate. Nearly 4,500 hours were spent researching and developing Biology 101.
Hundreds of captivating visuals and graphics
It may be Biblically-sound and scientific, but is it appealing? Absolutely! In fact, we have never seen a more engaging approach to biology. Using eye-catching video footage supported by hundreds of captivating visuals and graphics, Wes does an excellent job of explaining even the most complex of topics. And if retention is important to you, you will especially appreciate Wes' effort to cement any new vocabulary through the use of word pictures.
Biology 101 is best for students who:
1. Would benefit from an overview before an intense biology study.
2. Struggle with textbooks but readily learn via discussions.
3. Are not college-bound but need the basics of biology.
Appropriate and engaging for the whole family!
With initiative, Biology 101 can also be used as a full-blown, accredited biology course. Towards that end, a printable PDF file with quizzes and discussion questions is included as well as a 12-page Course Accreditation Program booklet which is included in a printable pdf format. While Biology 101 was designed specifically for ages fifteen and up, if you have younger children in your home you will be relieved to know that every word, graphic, and picture in Biology 101 is appropriate for the entire family. In fact, while this may be technically geared for high-school students, children as young as eight who love science and are bored with juvenile science courses will glean a massive amount of biology knowledge from this course and be further ahead for it.
The nine individual segments run from 30-45 minutes each:
Introduction: Defining Life and Life Classification
Plants
Aquatic (water) Creatures
Avian (flying) Creatures
Land Animals Part 1
Land Animals Part 2
Mankind Part 1
Mankind Part 2
Conclusion: Cells, Genetics, and a Brief History of Biology
Another outstanding component of Timberdoodle's Ninth Grade Core Curriculum!
