My rating of this resource: ***

My experience using this resource:
Env. Science

Topic I was teaching:
Carbon Cycle

My learning goal for which this resource was used:
to help students visualize the transfer of carbon from one form to another.

Course Level:
Honors or Advanced, Intro or Regular

How I/my students used the resource:
I had students read through this together while it was projected on the board. Discussion followed. While probably below their grade level, students enjoyed the animation and wanted to see how they did on the quiz at the end.

Value Added:
Provides visualization or animation, Increases student engagement and motivation

Strengths:
simple, content is good for what we needed to cover.

Weaknesses:
basic, probably not suited for an upper level science classroom.
