Workflow: Students will read the pages in their book and then complete each section of the PLP. They should be encouraged to complete as many as possible, especially those they have a special interest in. Older students should complete as many of the activities and projects as possible. Tests are given at regular intervals with space to record each grade. Younger students may be given the option of taking open book tests. Calculating Credits: This course should take between 60 to 90 hours to complete, depending on any additional hours spent on added research, essay writing assignments, or suggested lab work, if assigned. Elective courses that take 60 hours are commonly assigned ½ credit, while those 120 hours or more are assigned a full credit; core courses require over 150 hours for a credit. Based on whether this is being used as a core or elective course, make your final credits calculation based on the total hours of coursework completed in the year.

Since 1975, Master Books has been providing educational resources based on a biblical worldview to students of all ages. At the heart of these resources is our firm belief in a literal six-day creation, a young earth, the global Flood as revealed in Genesis 1–11, and other vital evidence to help build a critical foundation of scriptural authority for everyone. By equipping students with biblical truths and their key connection to the world of science and history, it is our hope they will be able to defend their faith in a skeptical, fallen world. If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do? Psalm 11:3; NKJV As the largest publisher of creation science materials in the world, Master Books is honored to partner with our authors and educators, including: Ken Ham of Answers in Genesis Dr. John Morris and Dr. Jason Lisle of the Institute for Creation Research Dr. Donald DeYoung and Michael Oard of the Creation Research Society Dr. James Stobaugh, John Hudson Tiner, Rick and Marilyn Boyer, Dr. Tom Derosa, and so many more! Whether a pre-school learner or a scholar seeking an advanced degree, we offer a wonderful selection of award-winning resources for all ages and educational levels. But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear. 1 Peter 3:15; NKJV

Features: Each suggested weekly schedule has two or three easy-to-manage lessons which combine reading, worksheets, and vocabulary-building opportunities including an expanded glossary for each book. Designed to allow your student to be independent, materials in this resource are divided by section so you can remove quizzes, tests, and answer keys before beginning the coursework. As always, you are encouraged to adjust the schedule and materials needed to in order to best work within your educational program. Workflow: Students will read the pages in their book and then complete each section of the PLP. They should be encouraged to complete as many of the activities and projects as possible as well. Tests are given at regular intervals with space to record each grade. If used with younger students, they may be given the option of only choosing activities or projects of interest to them and taking open book tests. Lesson Scheduling: Space is given for assignment dates. There is flexibility in scheduling. For example, the parent may opt for a M–W schedule rather than a M, W, F schedule. Each week listed has five days but due to vacations the school work week may not be M–F. Adapt the days to your school schedule. As the student completes each assignment, he/she should put an “X” in the box.

Course includes books from creationist authors with solid, biblical worldviews: John Hudson Tiner — Exploring the History of Medicine, Exploring the History of Biology John Hudson Tiner received five National Science Foundation teaching fellowships during his 12 years as a teacher of mathematics and science that allowed him to study graduate chemistry, astronomy, and mathematics. He also worked as a mathematician and cartographer for the Defense Mapping Agency, Aerospace Center in St. Louis, MO. Tiner has received numerous honors for his writing, including the Missouri Writer’s Guild award for best juvenile book for Exploring the World of Chemistry. He and his wife, Jeanene, live in Missouri.

Concepts of Medicine and Biology Course Description This is the suggested course sequence that allows one core area of science to be studied per semester. You can change the sequence of the semesters per the needs or interests of your student; materials for each semester are independent of one another to allow flexibility.

Semester 1: Medicine From surgery to vaccines, man has made great strides in the field of medicine. Quality of life has improved dramatically in the last few decades alone, and the future is bright. But students must not forget that God provided humans with minds and resources to bring about these advances. A biblical perspective of healing and the use of medicine provides the best foundation for treating diseases and injury. In Exploring the History of Medicine, author John Hudson Tiner reveals the spectacular discoveries that started with men and women who used their abilities to better mankind and give glory to God. The fascinating history of medicine comes alive in this book, providing students with a healthy dose of facts, mini-biographies, and vintage illustrations.

Semester 2: Biology The field of biology focuses on living things, from the smallest microscopic protozoa to the largest mammal. In this book you will read and explore the life of plants, insects, spiders and other arachnids, life in water, reptiles, birds, and mammals, highlighting God’s amazing creation. You will learn about biological classification, how seeds spread around the world, long-term storage of energy, how biologists learned how the stomach digested food, the plant that gave George de Mestral the idea of Velcro, and so much more. For most of history, biologists used the visible appearance of plants or animals to classify them. They grouped plants or animals with similar-looking features into families. In the 1990s, biologists began extracting DNA and RNA from cells as a guide to how plants or animlas should be grouped. Like visual structures, these reveal the underlying design of creation. Exploring the World of Biology is a fascinating look at life-from the smallest proteins and spores, to the complex life systems of humans and animals.

Special Projects The Exploring series offers a unique perspective filled with biographical, historical, and scientific perspectives. By highlighting the work and relevance of scientists and innovators, students are introduced to the people behind the knowledge and discoveries that continue to impact their world. This provides exceptional learning opportunities above and beyond the worksheets, quizzes, and tests. Below are three areas of possible activities or bonus point projects that can be undertaken to enhance study. Biographical • Select your favorite scientist mentioned in the book and do a research paper on this person’s life and/ or work. Be sure to include details that enhance the understanding of why they worked in the area of science that they chose, information on their worldview (Christian or secular) and why their work remains relevant. • There have been some amazing discoveries by women — see if you can find three discoveries by researching at your local library or online at parent-approved sites. Historical • Do three short essays — no more than two typed pages each — on discoveries that laid the groundwork for future science fields or the advancement of knowledge. • Discover where 25 important discoveries related to medicine or science took place; mark a map for each place and label with the name of each discovery. Scientific • Imagine an invention related to natural or medical science that could change the way you and others live. See if you can visualize your invention by drawing it out or providing details that would enable someone else to understand the relevance of your invention and how it works. Applied Learning These ideas provide a way for the student to acquire knowledge and then apply it — whether that is done in a technical sense or by being able to recognize the concepts at work in the course of their daily experiences. Consider doing one of the two following options as an opportunity to earn bonus points or to extend the learning process: • Take a spiral notebook and name it “My Learning Observations.” Then, using the concepts you learn in this course, mark the date and time you observe each example over a two-week period. Remember, science is happening around you all the time in every day life, so make sure your observations correlate with the study of medicine or biology. • You can keep a running study journal using the words and people to know as you encounter them in the course. By writing down the definition of words, or the contribution of an individual, you can develop a deeper understanding of the subject matter and have notes available when studying for quizzes and exams.

Antoni Leeuwenhoek discovered micro-organisms and glimpsed bacteria, about 1674. • Vaccination against diseases. Edward Jenner discovered vaccination against smallpox in 1796. • Anesthesia to kill pain during surgery. William Morton made the first public demonstration in 1846. Crawford Long had been the first to use ether in 1842. Other scientists who contributed include Humphry Davy, James Simpson, and Charles Jackson. • Antiseptic surgery to exclude germs from the operating room, primarily developed by Joseph Lister, demonstrated in 1865. • Germ theory of disease. Louis Pasteur had the primary role in proving that germs cause disease. His public demonstration of anthrax vaccine in 1882 established the theory against the harshest critics. • X-rays. Wilhelm Roentgen started a second scientific revolution with the discovery of x-rays in 1895. • Wonder drugs. Alexander Fleming found penicillium mold growing in a petri dish in 1928. From it came penicillin and other drugs that could kill bacteria without harming human cells. • We cannot predict who will make the next breakthrough. It could be you!

Snakebite!

24.

A bite from a snake without fangs comes only from the snake’s teeth. It does not inject poison. It inflects a series of scratches or tiny 27. 25. punctures. A bite from a non-venomous snake is unlikely to be a prob28. lem, but any bite should be examined by a medical doctor to ensure that it is, in fact, not from a venom29. ous snake. Like any other breaks in the skin, the tiny punctures offer a site for bacteria to enter the body. They should be treated with an antiseptic to prevent infection. Snakebites by venomous snakes 26. are more serious but few in number. Often, bites are not by snakes in the wild. Instead, they are by snakes  114aspets, kept those in medical research laboratories, or in reptile farms. In the United States, venomous snakes bite about 1,000 people each year, and about 15 people die from bites. This is far less than the deaths caused by bee stings. Even mosquitoes produce more deaths by diseases that they carry. What causes the venom of a snake to be toxic to humans? Venom is an enzyme. Nor-
