Blitzing Biology is an activity-based book, seeking to engage students in Biology through active learning. The activities strive to find a balance between different modes of learning and different levels of challenge. The activities incorporate ICT skills and resources, while avoiding excessive screen-time. 

Blitzing Biology includes a diverse range of student activities, including:

·      Experiments and hands-on models
·      Research reports and group presentations
·      Multiple-choice and short answer questions
·      Educational videos and online interactives
·      Graph drawing and graph analysis
·      Comprehension tasks
·      Fill-in-the-blanks
·      Mix-and-match
·      Extended response questions with scaffolding
·      Crosswords

Blitzing Biology has been designed in a worksheet format, providing writing and drawing space for the activities. The book’s format is designed to allow teachers to walk into the classroom with ready-to-go engaging educational activities to address the syllabus. Alternatively, teachers and students may wish to use Blitzing Biology to facilitate homework and revision.

Blitzing Biology is directly aligned with the NSW (Australia) Stage 6 Biology syllabus. Nonetheless, teachers outside of NSW have found it useful in their practice too, as Biology syllabi interstate and internationally have many commonalities.
