Build Skills. Build Confidence. Discover How Life Works in the Lab.
This majors-level biology lab manual helps students build confidence in core laboratory and scientific thinking skills through a clear, step-by-step approach. Each lab begins with concise concept overviews and learning objectives, then guides students through approachable procedures designed to make complex biology techniques easier to understand and apply.
Data analysis questions encourage students to interpret results, think critically, and connect experiments to core biological concepts. Fully aligned with the concept-driven How Life Works textbook, the manual creates a more connected learning experience across lecture and lab.
Available through our custom library in print, digital, or combined formats, the manual can be tailored to fit a range of course needs. Achieve integration supports student preparation and learning reinforcement with animations, simulations, and pre- and post-lab assessments.
