Books with author Jay L. Wile

Designed to be used as a student's first introduction to the higher sciences, General Science covers a wide range of topics, including the scientific method, geology, anatomy, physiology and more. Filled with study questions, color photos, illustrations and household experiments, your students will gain a comprehensive scientific foundation for later years.

This advanced chemistry course can be taken after a college-preparatory chemistry course. Students taking this course should have successfully completed algebra 2. Topics include stoichiometry (with limiting reactions), thermodynamics, kinetics, redox reactions, atomic structure, orbital hybridization, molecular orbitals, molecular geometry, chemical equilibrium, and nuclear chemistry. Students will also be introduced to organic chemistry, focusing on the major functional groups, organic nomenclature, and polymer chemistry. With more than 28 hours of laboratory exercises in this course, students will participate in experiments such as the rate of an iodine clock reaction, distillation, chromatography, the common ion effect, measuring pH changes in a buffer, the electrolysis of copper sulfate, polymerization experiments, the hydrolysis of sucrose, and much more!

This MP3 CD contains a complete audio recording of the Exploring Creation with Physical Science 2nd Edition textbook as read by Kathleen Wile. Although the audio for the complete text and On Your Own problems is included on the CD, the audio for the study guides, tests, and answers is not included. Please note that this is not a standard CD. It is an MP3-CD. This means that in order to listen to this CD, you must play it in an MP3-compatible CD player or on a computer. This item is not returnable once opened!

Set contains two books for The Human Body course: Textbook, and Solutions and Tests Book. This course covers both the anatomy and physiology of the human bodys 11 organ systems in detail. Students need to have completed one year each of high school biology and chemistry before taking this course. Parents please note that the reproductive system is covered in detail, including illustrations and descriptions.

The course includes detailed discussions of stoichiometry (with limiting reactants), thermodynamics, kinetics, acids and bases, redox reactions, solutions, atomic structure, orbital hybridization, molecular orbitals, molecular geometry, chemical equilibrium, and nuclear chemistry. The student also receives an introduction to organic chemistry, focusing on the major functional groups, organic nomenclature, and polymer chemistry. There are 28 hours of laboratory exercises in the course, including the rate of an iodine clock reaction, distillation, chromatography, the common ion effect, measuring pH changes in a buffer, the electrolysis of copper sulfate, polymerization experiments, and the hydrolysis of sucrose. The hardcover student text (color illustrations) contains all student material, study questions, laboratory exercises, and practice problems. The hardcover student text (color illustrations) contains all student material, study questions, laboratory exercises, and practice problems.

This textbook is one part of a two-book set. You will also need the Solutions and Tests Manual to complete the course. This course covers kinematics, dynamics, rotational motion, gravity, oscillations, waves, optics, thermal physics, electrical forces, electrical potential, DC circuits, magnetic forces, atomic physics, and nuclear physics. Students are also introduced to the topics of special relativity and general relativity. This course uses all household items for labs. Students will measure their vertical pitching speed, measure the coefficient of kinetic friction, experiment with ping-pong pendulums, study adiabatic compression and expansion, and much more. This advanced physics course can be taken after successfully completing a college-preparatory physics course. Students taking this course should also have successfully completed pre-calculus.

Exploring Creation with Physical Science, 2nd Edition is designed to help your student make the transition from junior high to high school science. During this course, your student will study their physical environment and the basic laws that make it work. Topics include the Earth’s atmosphere, weather, motion, Newton’s laws, gravity, atomic structure, radiation, nuclear reaction, and outer space. Experiments for this course include examining carbon dioxide and the greenhouse effect, exploring the forces between molecules, modeling plate tectonics, predicting weather, and much more. We recommend that your student take this course while taking or after completing pre-algebra math.

Designed to be a student's first systematic introduction to the sciences, this course includes a history of science, the scientific method, and how to design an experiment. Subjects covered include simple machines, archaeology, geology, paleontology, biology, and human anatomy and physiology. Many hands-on experiments are included, all using basic household items. The second edition of the includes more color and higher-quality illustrations, access to additional online resources for more advanced learners, and an appendix of review questions covering the entire course. This is a two-volume set. The high-quality hardcover student text contains all student material, study questions, laboratory exercises, and module study guides with color photos and illustrations. The softcover solutions-and-tests manual contains answers to module study guides, tests, and test solutions. A booklet containing an extra set of tests is shrink-wrapped with the manual.
