eScience Labs Expands Its Product Line of Affordable Home Science Kits
Provider of quality at-home science experimentation tools offers online learners and homeschooled students the opportunity to explore biology with affordable, environmentally friendly hands-on lab kits
The Next Generation of Hands-On, Home Science Labs
eScience Labs, the pioneer of the next generation at-home science kits for the modern learner, has received glowing reviews for its series of entry level lab kits developed for high school and introductory-level college students. The dynamic and comprehensive design of ESL products has raised the bar for hands-on kits, providing a blended approach to enhance comprehension and learning outcomes. The overwhelming success of its Introductory Biology and Accelerated Biology series has prompted eScience Labs to take this model and develop a series of hands-on labs for middle school learners.
“eScience Labs’ middle school science kits lay the foundation for scientific literacy in a fun, dynamic way” explains Dr. Ann Marie Bottcher, Director of Curriculum Development at eScience Labs. “The Life Science kit was developed to enrich the students’ growing understanding of the diversity of life, and encourage them to draw parallels with other subject, such as geography” she adds.
A life science series, available in time for the fall semester, will include labs on the Scientific Method, The Basis of Life, The Kingdoms of Life and Environmental Science. This series will be followed by an Earth Science and a Physical Science series, set to release by the end of 2008. Though each will be designed with the same standards and rigor as our upper level series, they will be written at the 6th to 8th grade levels. Each series will provide the fundamental skills and knowledge students need to meet and exceed their states’ 8th grade science standards.
“Middle school is a great opportunity to get students excited about science.” explains Dr. Nicolas Benedict, President and CEO of eScience Labs. “However, not all parents or teachers have the science background to take advantage of this opportunity. We take care of this for them with a fun and blended learning experience that today’s kids have come to expect”.
