Cambridge International AS and A Level Chemistry Coursebook with Digital Access (2 Years) (3rd Edition)

Description

For first examination from 2022, these resources meet the real needs of the chemistry classroom.

Extensive research through lesson observations, teacher interviews and work with our research community (the Cambridge Panel) means that this coursebook with digital access meets the real teaching needs of the chemistry classroom. Exam-style questions ensure students feel confident approaching assessment. New features provide reflection opportunities and self-evaluation checklists develop responsible learners. The coursebook provides a range of enquiry questions, such as practical activities, group work and debate questions that develop 21st century skills. It supports English as a second language learners with key command terms, accessible language and glossary definitions.

Key Features

• Features (such as ‘Before You Start’), summaries and reflection boxes provide students with metacognitive and content-based reflection opportunities.
• Science in Context features with open-ended discussion questions enable students to practise their English skills, interpret ideas in a real-world context, and debate concepts with other learners.
• Multi-part exam-style questions at the end of each chapter help prepare students for examinations and cover the range of paper styles.
• Provides a range of enquiry questions – such as practical activities, group work and debate questions, that help students develop 21st century skills.
