Contextual Chemistry (#069866) contains 26 lessons with an emphasis in environmental science. It is designed for the high school level.
A "sideways" approach to Conceptual Chemistry in which the social and environmental applications of chemistry take center stage along side the development of chemistry concepts. Although there is a greater emphasis on the topics of chemistry, this curriculum still provides for a solid foundation by embracing Conceptual Chemistry's carefully crafted spiral approach whereby key concepts are revisited throughout the textbookeach time in a different light and with greater depth. The author himself teaches his college courses using this approach. It's challenging, but fun! Recommended for students who are not likely to pursue a career in science or technology.

Offering four different chemistry course options from the same textbook, one of these self-study digital options is sure to meet your student's science needs at the high school level. Requires the Conceptual Chemistry Textbook, available in a printed al-a-cart edition or as an e-Textbook from Vital Source. Courses include chemistry labs using common household items.
