Lecture Schedules, Reading Assignments and Lecture Notes:
Lecture begins on Wednesday, January 23 with Plant and Fungal Diversity (Dr. Lewis Feldman), followed by Evolution (Dr. Montgomery Slatkin) and wraps up with Ecology (Dr. Vincent Resh). The lecture schedules for each section are available at these links or by clicking the corresponding pictures at the top of the page.
Lab Manual:
We no longer publish a formal lab manual that you are required to buy. Rather, each lab exercise will be available to download (in PDF format) from the Laboratory Schedule page.
About PDF files:
PDF (Portable Document Format) files are used extensively on this site and the internet in general, as they are (computer) platform independent (that is, the files can be exchanged between hardware running different operating systems, whether it is Windows, Mac OS, Linux). Software is readily available to open, view and print PDF files. Many computer systems come pre-installed with software that can do this. If your computer lacks software that can open PDF files, then download the free Adobe Reader program from this link (Adobe created the PDF file format). Be sure to select the correct platform and operating system for your computer.
Warning To Cheaters:
Here is a Warning to Cheaters, a letter that was written by a former Biology 1B student who was caught and disciplined. This student was obligated to share this letter with their peers in part to fulfill the requirement for readmittence.
Tips for Taking Multiple-Choice Exams:
Dr. John Latto, who teaches this course during summer session, has written a Guide for Taking Exams based on Multiple-Choice Questions which he has graciously allowed us to share with you.
Lecture Webcasts:
Lecture webcasts will usually be available for viewing online later on the same day of lecture. Previous semester(s) webcasts are archived in the event you want to view them. If you have any questions, please contact Educational Technology Services, as they provide the webcast service. You need to have the free RealPlayer installed on your computer to view the streaming video.
