My rating of this resource: *****
My experience using this resource: Biotechnology
Topic I was teaching: DNA Profiling
My learning goal for which this resource was used: Students learn how to read a DNA profile.
Course Level: Honors or Advanced, Intro or Regular, Remedial
How I/my students used the resource: Students worked individually to answer questions about a robbery and a will investigation.
Value Added: Provides visualization or animation, Provides a virtual lab, Provides assessment opportunity, Increases student engagement and motivation
Strengths: Students go through the process of creating a DNA profile and then use the profile to solve the case of a robbery and a will.
Weaknesses: Must have proper software to use simulation. Doesn't go through every step of creating a profile. I had to include additional questions to help students through the process.
