Teaching cell biology can be challenging for even the most experienced instructors. Many cell biology textbooks are overwhelmed with excessive detail and background information, making it difficult to focus on the most fascinating and current advancements in the field. It becomes almost impossible to create an active learning environment in the classroom due to the vast amount of material that needs to be covered.
In an effort to address these challenges, Cooper’s The Cell: A Molecular Approach, Eighth Edition (PDF) provides concise writing, incorporates current research, encourages critical thinking with a test bank, and establishes an active learning framework. This textbook offers just the right amount of detail for a one-semester sophomore or junior level course, presenting fundamental concepts and up-to-date research. It includes chapters on Genomics and Transcriptional Regulation and Epigenetics, as well as new in-text boxed features on Molecular Medicine and Key Experiments. Instructors will appreciate the updates to the eighth edition test bank, such as the higher Bloom’s level of questions and the ability to choose questions based on difficulty.
For instructors interested in flipping their classrooms or enhancing student engagement, The Cell, 8th Edition is accompanied by an Active Learning Guide. This guide, chapter-by-chapter, provides instructions on how to create a dynamic learning environment with in-class exercises, clicker questions, and links to relevant media, animations, testing, and self-quizzing.
