Welcome to Biology for Life |
This site is designed for
students enrolled in IB Biology 1 at
Skyline High School
in the
Issaquah
School District.
The IB Biology Higher Level (HL) I course is outlined by
the International
Baccalaureate Organization. It is the first class
in a two year series that meets the objectives of
general biology courses on the college level. The
objectives include studying the characteristics, unity,
and diversity of living things; the concept of evolution
as an explanation of unity and diversity; the nature of
science as a human enterprise; collection, analysis and
interpretation of data; and the application of
biological concepts to new situations including those
involving human society and populations. The aim of the
course is to develop an understanding and appreciation
of the vast array of biological knowledge.
