| The 279 page Student Lab
Manual provides hands-on exercises and demonstrations to reinforce physical science
concepts presented in the text. The laboratory exercises in this book are designed to go
along with the student text and provide a framework in which students can increase their
understanding by becoming personally aquainted with various physical science processes.
The Lab Manual provides students with exercises to help them study without having to
memorize cold facts. When it comes
to learning, nothing can compare to hands-on experience. The investigations and
demonstrations in this book were developed so that you will become genuinely interested in
science. With this manual, students practice the methods of scientists to see firsthand
how science works, what it can do and what it cannot do. Students are then able to
remember information from the student text more easily by using information rather than
simply memorizing it. Students will develop problem-solving skills as the manual guides
them in making accurate observations and sound judgments as you investigate scientific
problems.
In this manual, there are about forty
main exercises. Some exercises are designed to take more than one class day to complete,
while others take only a few minutes. |
