Activity 2: Readings
Use the topic list in Activity 1 and the guiding questions in Activity 5 of this module to help focus your reading as you go through the suggested chapters. Start with either Conceptual Integrated Science or Thinkwell, depending on your learning style. Conceptual Integrated Science is a textbook and Thinkwell consists of lectures by various professors as well as lessons on different topics. If there is a guiding question or topic that is not covered adequately in one learning resource, refer to the other learning resource. Chapters in the WGU Library E-Reserves are also available to help you answer the questions and become competent in natural science.
