Biology 101, My Review

We are using Biology 101 (sold by www.Timberdoodle.com). I say we because if my husband or myself are in the room while this is playing, we can't help but sit and watch. It is so interesting! The DVD's are professionally done with sharp graphics and clear audio. Although this was produced by a homeschool dad and son, this course does not have a "homemade" flavor to it. It is top notch all the way.
Included on one of the DVD's is the accreditation booklet and the guidebook, which includes the quizes as well as "textbook". Following the guidelines in the accreditation booklet (which has included self guided lessons for your high schooler) this could very easily be a full year long Biology course. We are using it as a review and sort of finalization of my son's Biology course. If we had not done so much Biology previously, I would definitely use this for a stand alone Biology class.
The price is great and the program is great. My only regret is that we didn't find it sooner!!
Now if we could only find a writing program and a chemistry program like this!!
I am in no way affiliated with the folks who make this or sell it. It is just a great program (the BEST homeschool course I've seen in 14 years of homeschooling) and I thought others would like to know about it.
