A Student Handbook for Writing in Biology by Karin Knisely
The newest edition of Knisely's Student Handbook for Writing in Biology is the helping hand your students are looking for, offering the support they need to write within the conventions of biology. Topics range from reading technical literature and writing scientific papers, to preparing lab reports and giving oral presentations of scientific findings. Students get practical advice from MS Office appendices, tutorial videos, and various checklists. Examples and resources throughout the text show not just what to do, but how to do it.
The newest edition mirrors the ways students use online resources and social media platforms for research, making sure the information is both credible and relevant. A new statistics chapter covers the application of descriptive statistics to actual datasets and selected tests of significance.
Karin Knisely is Lab Director of Core Course Biology at Bucknell University. She earned a B.S. in Biology from Bucknell, (where she was a three-sport athlete and is now enshrined in the Athletics Hall of Fame) and an M.S. in Zoology from the University of New Hampshire. She then completed a Deutscher Akademischer Austauschdienst (DAAD) fellowship at the University of Konstanz (the German equivalent of a Fulbright fellowship). Bilingual in German and English, she sometimes works, outside of the academic year, as a freelance translator.
