=Welcome to A.P. Biology = = Congratulations to our Graduating Seniors!! = = Best of Luck in College!! =

AP Biology 2013-2014 = Have a wonderful Summer! Keep in touch!! = Below are the instructions and schedule for the 2014 Review!





[]
 * = Check out the hottest majors that lead to jobs! =


 * =Read about the 2013 winners of the Nobel Prize in Medicine and Physiology:=
 * =Topic - Cell Signaling!!=

= Welcome to the 2013 - 2014 AP Biology Wiki ! =



= What is a wiki? =

=**A wiki is a website that can be edited by anyone. In this case, you and I will be the authors of this wiki!** =

=**Last year I used the WIKI to post links to helpful videos and other resources.The WIKI was also used by students to collaborate on several lab reports. They also created a Wiki for the purpose of review for the AP exam. This year we will be using it for a number of purposes.** =
 * =**First, there will be a page for each unit on which assignments will be posted. This page will also contain links to resources you might find helpful. This year, since all of you have iPads, I will be including links to PDF files for all assignments. These can be opened in Notability and completed on-line. Also, remember YOU are the co-authors of this WIKI so if you find a link, video or reference that you think your classmates would benefit from, please share it on the appropriate unit page.** =


 * ==**Second, you will be collaborating with your lab partners to produce some of your final lab reports. These will be posted on the WIKI. You will also complete some collaborative research projects using the WIKI.** ==


 * ==**Third, I am providing an RSS newfeed to allow you to keep informed regarding news in biology. Each week you should choose one of these articles, summarize it and discuss how you think it illustrates one of the four Big Ideas.** ==

//Big Idea 1: The process of evolution drives the diversity and unity of life// //Big idea 2: Biological systems utilize free energy and molecular building blocks to grow, reproduce and to maintain dynamic homeostasis .// //Big idea 3: Living systems store, retrieve, transmit and respond to information essential to life processes// //Big idea 4: Biological systems interact, and these systems and their interactions possess complex properties.//


 * ==Fourth, You will also be using it to create your own review for the exam. ==
 * ==**Finally, Who knows where this WIKI will take us?? There are many different uses, so we will be open to new ideas as they arise. Feel free to make suggestions!** ==
