A Matter of Life 3.0 è un corso di inglese specialistico per l’indirizzo chimico, microbiologico, biotecnologico e ambientale.
 Grazie alla ricchezza del materiale proposto, il testo offre la possibilità di scegliere gli argomenti sia in base ai programmi delle materie tecnico-scientifiche di indirizzo, sia in base agli interessi e al livello di competenza linguistica degli studenti.
 I contenuti sono stati ordinati secondo criteri di graduale complessità concettuale e linguistica e vengono esplorati utilizzando le quattro abilità in modo omogeneo e integrato.
 I brani offrono un assortimento di stili, registri e livelli di difficoltà.

 Martin Rees     Crucial to science education is hands-on involvement: showing, not just telling; real experiments and field trips and not just virtual reality. Martin John Rees (born 1942) is a British cosmologist and astrophysicist who was Master of Trinity College, Cambridge and President of the Royal Society. He has been Astronomer Royal since 1995. WHY STUDY THIS MODULE? In this Module you will revise the good behaviour rules which must be followed at all times when working in a school science lab to keep you and your classmates safe. You will then be introduced to the essential English terminology referring to science laboratory equipment and laboratory work and you will revise what the essential tools are used for, how to take measurements, and how to clean-up after laboratory work.
