| Overview: |
This learning object is an interactive tutorial and quizing lesson in the
composition of cell membrane structure. The student studies the structure of the
cell membrane by constructing it using the correct molecules.It is presented in
Flash format; the lesson is engaging, easy to follow, and offers immediate
feedback. |
| Learning Goals: |
Through building the molecular structure of the cell membrane, the student
will
learn the makeup and the basis for cell membrane function, as well as identify
and locate teh membrane porteins of a cell wall. This is a crucial
step to learning about the fundamental unit of life -- the cell. |
| Target Student Population: |
Students in advanced high school Biology and college basic biology and
physiology courses, as well as students enrolled in health science courses such
as nutrition, pathophysiology,and pharmacology. |
| Prerequisite Knowledge or Skills: |
Knowledge of basic physiology terms would make the material more
meaningful to the student. |
| Type of Material: |
The presentation is an animation using Flash. |
| Recommended Uses: |
This material would match the learning style needs of the visual and
kinesthetic learner to understand the basic core knowledge of an introductory
biology course. |
| Technical Requirements: |
The Flash plug-in is required. The site provides a link to the plug-in as
well as a help link. |
