NEW FOR 2015 SALTERS-NUFFIELD AS and A level Biology SNAB ONLINE The dedicated online service packed with resources for both students and teachers to support teaching and learning. SEE H OW SNAB ONLI NE IS CHAN GING 2015 IN www.pearsonschools.co.uk/snab2015 SNAB Online is changing… SNAB Online is changing from summer 2015 to make it compatible with the new 2015 AS/A level specifications, and to offer you the benefits of easier access, increased support and improved activities. All the relevant content that we know you love will continue to be available, plus exciting new content and features. The current SNAB Online service will also continue to be available for students following the 2008 specifications. What is new? What is the same? Content has been reviewed and updated to make it compatible with the 2015 specifications and new content has been added to support new requirements. The new service will continue to provide the huge wealth of resources and activities that teachers are familiar with for the SNAB course, including all the practicals, student sheets, technician sheets, and the topic resources and review tests that are clearly referenced throughout the student books. Interactive activities have been improved to enhance the learning process and to provide supportive, instant feedback for students. The main topic activities and materials are accessed in a topic–by–topic navigation structure that teachers are familiar with, and new material is clearly visible. Features such as the media bank of images for teachers to use as they wish, the printing options and the glossary are all available in the new service. New activities provide extra support for developing the maths skills needed for AS and A level biology, and for developing understanding of core biological concepts. Teachers are able to obtain a range of helpful reports on students’ progress and areas of strength and weakness. A new and improved molecule viewer gives enhanced modelling and a better viewing experience. Teachers and students are able to access SNAB Online activities from a range of devices, including tablets and smart phones. What happens to students already mid-way through AS and A level courses?
