The units can be used as the primary material for a tech prep course, or as a supplement to a standard basal chemistry, biology, earth science, or physics textbook. The program is also appropriate for two-year vocational/technical schools. THE PROGRAMScience in a Technical World takes a hands-on, minds-on approach, with students investigating an industry-based problems faced by science technicians in a typical work day. Each unit involves students in the solution of a science technology-related problem that might actually occur.
