Welcome to BIOL 1114!

Biology: Concepts and Investigations. 2nd edition. Marielle Hoefnagels. McGraw-Hill. is available through the bookstore as a special OSU bundle that includes the paper book, the electronic (e-book) version of the book (available online through Connect+), and LearnSmart, which is online software that provides quizzes based on the reading assignments.  LearnSmart should help you understand the readings better, but will not be used for graded homework assignments.

The book (ISBN (978-0-07-340347-2) is available in hardback online (without the Connect+ bundle) from external vendors.  This will have all the same biology content.  However, you will not have access to the online book or the online quizzes.  The savings for this option versus the bookstore bundle will be small.
           
The book is also available as an e-book only (ISBN 978-0-07-729534-9)as part of Connect+.  Buying the ebook this way provides you with LearnSmart and upfront savings.  However, it is only available with an internet connection and will not have resale value. It is available through McGraw-Hill online at:
