SparklyUnicorn Posted September 5, 2016 Posted September 5, 2016 DVDs, youtube, documentaries, etc...Any good ones out there that don't cost an arm and a leg? I'm looking for any general biology topics. 1 Quote

theelfqueen Posted September 6, 2016 Posted September 6, 2016 We used Crash Course and got some freebies from Howard Hughes Medical Institute (hhmi.org) 2 Quote
ondreeuh Posted September 6, 2016 Posted September 6, 2016 We use math videos from Brightstorm and really like them. Their biology videos match up to pretty much every high school bio. The subscription to ALL of their videos is $99/year and I think it is worth it. 1 Quote

Haiku Posted September 8, 2016 Posted September 8, 2016 The Macaw iPad version has a bunch of videos. It's $15. 1 Quote
NoPlaceLikeHome Posted September 8, 2016 Posted September 8, 2016 Homeschool Buyers Co-op sells Thinkwell which has a full Biology Course. It goes on sale every 6 weeks or so. Quote
NoPlaceLikeHome Posted September 8, 2016 Posted September 8, 2016 Your library may have the Great Course Biology to borrow. You can buy it on sale too. Quote
Chrysalis Academy Posted September 8, 2016 Posted September 8, 2016 we like Crash Course Biology, Bozeman, and we absolutely love the HHMI/Biointeractive.org resources. It's not just the videos, there are lab activities, interactives, so many great resources. We're using a ton of them for our biology class (skewed toward ecology) this year. I haven't looked at Khan's biology in years. Hmm. Anybody who used the Great Course Biology have any reviews? Were the lectures engaging? I've discovered that 30 minutes is a long time to sit through a lecture, here in the age of the 10-min-max Coursera format. 2 Quote
lisabees Posted September 8, 2016 Posted September 8, 2016 There is also the free ibook by EO Wilson. Quote
My3girls Posted September 8, 2016 Posted September 8, 2016 We tried Great Courses, but dd14 couldn't stay awake for them. lol She loves Crash Course which is free on Youtube. I have CK12.org in my back pocket for if we need more, but so far so good. 1 Quote
