Part of The Biology Project. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=81168 A self quizzing program around all areas of pharmacology math for nurses. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=90821 This site provides a simplified description of the strengths and weaknesses of a variety of research methods. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=91343 Tutorial on the physical examination, including audio clips of cardiac and respiratory sounds, and on-line quizzes. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=242870 The Information Literacy Game was created to reinforce information literacy concepts. It allows from two to four students to play against each other by answering questions about information literacy topics in four different categories (such as Choose your Resource, Avoiding Plagiarism, and Searching and Using Databases).   The game also has a one-player version in which students provide timed responses to questions.   In addition, the game includes special squares placed around the board where students are asked to evaluate either one or two websites and answer a question based on that evaluation.The Game is open and was created for the adaptation and use of other educators and librarians.  A guide to modifying the game and the necessary files are provided on the website. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=91403 Web-based tutorials and interactive quizzes that cover basic concepts of DNA forensics, karyotyping (en Espa?ol), genetics, blood types, reproduction, sexually transmitted diseases, using human examples.

The mnemonic helps the student learn the correct sequence of tasks that must be followed. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=84353 Part of Nobelprize.org; Explains blood groups, blood typing and who can donate to whom. The content includes the discovery of blood groups, the makeup of blood, the ABO system, and the Rh factor grouping system. The information also includes blood compatability issues. Users can play an interactive blood transfusion game where they draw blood from comic characters, add the blood to three different reagents, then administer the blood to the patients. The game is fun and easy to use by both adult learners and children. Key words: Blood transfusion; Blood group incompatability; Blood grouping and crossmatching.
