A Natural Approach to Chemistry, Third Edition Student Edition is a comprehensive high school chemistry textbook that engages students with real, relevant connections to the world around them. In addition to the engaging presentation of science content, the page layout of this durable, hardbound book was carefully designed to enhance readability. Some of the key features are:
- Each chapter begins with a Get Started that sets the stage and generates interest and ends with a Chemisty Connection that highlights real-world applications.
- Every page is laid out the same way, with generous white space.
- One idea per page - placed in the page header of every page
- Paragraph headers - every paragraph has the main idea in the left margin. This helps students skim and scan, and identifies what they are reading.
- Vocabulary: Key words, phrases, and concepts on each page are summarized on the page header, the side margin, and the vocabulary box at the bottom.
- Illustrations: Over 2,000 detailed, content-rich illustrations that are not just pictures, but have been carefully designed to teach the ideas in the text in a graphical way.
- Icons - The same vocabulary icon is used on every page, as is the solved problem icon
- Solved problems - every formula has a solved example problem immediately following, on the same page
- The same problem solving technique is consistently followed throughout the text: What are you asked? What information is given? What relationships involve what is asked or given? Use the relationships and information to solve the problem. Clearly state the answer.
- Each chapter ends with a Chapter Review with a variety of different types of assessment questions for each section.
