My rating of this resource: ***
My experience using this resource: Biology
Topic I was teaching: Protein Synthesis-Transcription
My learning goal for which this resource was used: Give students an introduction to transcription without all the enzymes and details that will be introduced later.
Course Level: Intro or Regular
How I/my students used the resource: This was shown to the students and I asked them to explain what they were seeing. Because we had done DNA replication they were able to make connections.
Value Added: Provides visualization or animation
Strengths: Simplicity of the animation makes it good to use. It also has text with each step and you can view the animation with pauses or continuously
Weaknesses: It's simplicity is good for introductins but the animation lacks the details that are needed to thoroughly understand transcription. If I was pressed for time I would not use this site.
