The work, which perfectly meets curricular needs, adopts a clear, easy-to-read approach and uses figures that illustrate objective way what is shown by the text. The content covers all stages of teaching practice, including the planning of teaching activities, teacher updating and the use of models to evaluate the knowledge acquired by the student. Each chapter of Essential Genetics has special characteristics that provide assimilation of the topic. The reader will find a list of key concepts for understanding the text; a summary of the main ideas covered; and some self-assessment questions on the content exposed in each chapter.
