My rating of this resource: ****

My experience using this resource:
Biology

Topic I was teaching:
Cell Respiration

My learning goal for which this resource was used:
I was using this animation (written by one of my college lab instructors!) to teach the essentials of the krebs cycle and glycolysis.

Course Level:
A.P., Honors or Advanced, Intro or Regular

How I/my students used the resource:
We watched the animiation after going through images of the processes as a way to review and solidify the concepts.

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

Strengths:
I think it simplifies the process into its basic essentials. It helos students see the big picture of the process.

Weaknesses:
It goes quickly and there is no way to pause each stage. We watched each step several times.
