Online Instructor Requirements | Spring 2024

Welcome to Human Biology II, a continuation of Human Biology I, which if taken recently, you should already have the textbook and Pearson Access Code, both of which are required. This is an online course with no face-to-face requirements, and it does not have a lab component so the Lab Manual is not required.

Students enrolling in this course must adhere to the following:

• 1. Students may purchase a physical textbook or use the E-text provided by the Publisher which is included in Inclusive Access, which includes Pearson's MyLab and Mastering Access. Students are charged for the cost of the E-text and the Publisher's courseware at the time of registration with Inclusive Access (BIOL 1050 is $95). If you already have the textbook with Pearson's MyLab and Mastering Access Code, you can opt out of the Inclusive Access program; for example, if you purchased the materials for BIOL 1040 Fall semester and it included a 2-semester access, you would not need to pay for it again this semester. ** There is also a temporary free 14-day access to get started with Pearson's MyLab and Mastering. Please visit the Bookstore for purchase options. CCP students should notify their high school ASAP that a Mastering Access Code IS REQUIRED.
