As a Caribbean Examinations Council examiner for Caribbean Advanced Proficiency Examination (CAPE) biology, Dr Claire Durant recognised a disconnection between students and the subject—one which she is hoping to bridge with her new book.
Dr Durant says “BIOLOGY for CAPE Examinations” breaks down topics by taking a Caribbean perspective on the subject.
Via Zoom call, she told Sunday Stabroek that she spent a year and a half compiling information for the book, the latest Macmillan Education-Caribbean text, which takes a Caribbean outlook on biology topics for CAPE Units 1 and 2.
