My rating of this resource: ***

My experience using this resource:
Biology

Topic I was teaching:
I'm looking at it for mitosis and reviewing osmosis

My learning goal for which this resource was used:
TO review osmosis, which my students can't seem to get - going forward to show them mitosis

Course Level:
Intro or Regular

How I/my students used the resource:
For the mitosis I have a chart they will fill out highlighting the important aspects of mitosis. As an extension I want them to conjecture for each phase, what problems may arise in the resulting cell if there is an error or malfunction

Value Added:
Provides visualization or animation, Provides practice or tutorial

Strengths:
I haven't used this yet, but I believe, from prior experiences with animations, that this will keep motivation and interest high.

Weaknesses:
Haven't seen any yet
