We utilise a number of different boxes throughout our textbooks to highlight tips and important information, but also to support key components of the IB syllabus.

To make it easy to detect and differentiate the boxes they have numerous styles and colours. In total there are twelve types of boxes, and they are included in the textbooks when relevant.

Have a look at the various boxes and their respective descriptions: 

Definition boxes define an important concept or term.

Nature of Science boxes highlight important overarching concepts of science such as ethics, objectivity or modeling.
