Test Bank For Microbiology with Diseases by Taxonomy, 6th Edition - Page 4 preview imageivPREFACEPrefaceThe Test Bank consists of approximately 1800 multiple-choice, matching, true/false,fill- in-the-blank, short-answer, and essay questions. The questions are ranked usingBloom’s Taxonomy. The main text Learning Outcomes and the section upon which thequestion is based are also provided. The complete Mastering Test Bank is also taggedto Microbiology in Nursing and Allied Health (MINAH) Outcomes and the PearsonGlobal Science Learning Outcomes.Below is a list of additional print and media resources available to you as an adopterofMicrobiology.Contact your local Pearson representative if you would like to orderany additional supplements. To locate the representative nearest you, visithttps://www.pearson.com/us/contact-us/find-your-rep.html.Using Mastering Microbiology with Your TextbookAsk your Pearson representative for a demonstration of Mastering Microbiology ortake a tour (www.masteringmicrobiology.com).1.Assign and assess with Mastering Microbiology.Mastering Microbiologywill help you maximize class time with customizable, easy-to-assign, and auto-matically graded assessments. Many assessments have built-in feedback tohelp guide your students to the correct answer. You can then easily exportgrades to a course management system or spreadsheet.
