My rating of this resource: ****
My experience using this resource: evolution
Topic I was teaching: Hardy Weinberg, genetic expression in a population
My learning goal for which this resource was used: To help students see the differences between selection, mutation, genetic drift and the ways these forces can change the genetic frequencies.
Course Level: Honors or Advanced, Intro or Regular
How I/my students used the resource: I used the animation in class to illustrate the concepts we were discussing. I also sent the link to students so they could view it on their own.
Value Added: Provides visualization or animation
Strengths: It uses a simple model to show the differences between evolutionary forces. Visual learners found it quite helpful.
Weaknesses: You can't control the speed and it goes a little too fast for some students. It is a bit simplistic in its presentation.
