How to Study Science on the Web

At Wisebridge Learning Systems we have a great deal of experience helping premedical students studying for the MCAT. Our work has lately become well received within the Advanced Placement community as well. Our comments here are for AP students also.

Students preparing for a comprehensive science exam have many types of learning materials competing for their attention. Should they study their textbooks and lecture notes, search for tutorials on the web, or stay with specialty publications and courses geared toward their exam? All are useful. The answer is to recognize the advantages and disadvantages of each and use them well together.
  • Textbooks - A modern undergraduate science textbook results from major effort on the part of highly accomplished academic authors, talented illustrators, and careful editors. The quality of explanation tends to be superb, though suffering every now and then from the specialization of the authors. The chemical thermodynamics in a typical biology textbook is often cringe-worthy, for example. Nevertheless, a modern science textbook is a great treasure, and can definitely be an asset for comprehensive review. However, when you have limited time before your exam, don't try to read every word in your textbooks. Instead, force yourself to sit down and actually read the table of contents. Use your textbook to adjust your mind to the shape and scope of the knowledge as a whole. Carefully skim the entire book from cover to cover. Read the bold headings of each section and reflect for a moment on the phenomena described within each section. Don't try to memorize everything. There are many ways to read a textbook. Sometimes you can focus in. Sometimes you can pan back.

  • Test-prep Publications - Compared to textbook publishing, the world of test-prep publishing is the wild west, full of unaccountable promises and wild claims. On one end of town, there is the fellow in his garage selling Your Super Secret Keys to Test-Prep Success. On the other end, you can find well-intentioned work, such as Wisebridge publications, which are the result of a great deal of experience, thought and effort. Often the discussions in test-prep books tend to lack much insight, and there is little attention to the actual process of learning. Nevertheless, there are three main advantages to the big test review book. First, there is specific focus on the most relevant material. Second, the summary nature of the material makes it easy to achieve multiple study cycles, which is crucially important for a structured learning process. Third, there are often helpful exercises modeled after test questions and practice exams.

  • Websites - Several very experienced teachers and professors have created comprehensive tutorials on the scientific disciplines and made them freely available on the web, contributing a great deal to science education over the past few years. There are several excellent choices for each of the disciplines providing a quality of scientific instruction that is truly excellent and well-calibrated for MCAT or AP review. There are obvious advantages to the web-based learning environment compared to printed material in terms of navigation and flexibility. However, there are also disadvantages. The biggest disadvantage is not so obvious at first. This derives from the need for there to be a stage of learning to size up the scope and structure of the challenge itself. The physical character of printed materials is an advantage, serving as an 'advance organizer' in education lingo. This is difficult aspect to explain, but it is important to understand in order to use the web properly for learning. With a book, you can hold it in your hand. It has a weight. You can flip through it, and it is easy to see the beginning and end. With a website, though, it is harder to get your mind around the material to sense the shape of the knowledge. The mind needs that sense of overall scope and structure for effective learning. Some sites are better at providing an overall structure than others. Always take time to understand a website''s main navigational structure, its table of contents, and get comfortable with its navigational mode before starting serious study. Walk around the mountain before you start tunnneling. This is crucially important.

    Another concern with using the resources on the web is the difficulty in certifying that the information and instructional level specifically pertains to your needs for your test. There is a great deal of marketing by the test-prep industry, which profits from students purchasing niche publications instead of using general, often better, resources. Still, the concerns are valid. To allay these concerns, the links on this page were specifically chosen because of their appropriateness. For the MCAT, don't let yourself spend two months studying plants and jellyfish on a general biology site. Those are not MCAT topics. Use the AAMC guidelines to keep you on track. Use your test-prep book to organize your approach, and use the Wisebridge Learning Center. Take responsibility for your knowledge base.

Regarding the resource lists above, under each scientific discipline, the list of links begins with our most highly recommended sites for general study, and works down from there to more specialized resources. Please note that in addition to this resources page, there are nearly 3000 links to the specific content within these sites organized and presented by the Wisebridge Learning Center. Feel free to take advantage of this alternative, structured navigational framework to access web-based learning materials.
