Do your students have trouble understanding complex processes in Biology? Many times students cannot envision the complex processes happening when reading from a textbook. Use these silent animations to see the processes as they would happen in the cell. The general topic areas include Water/Buffers, Lipids, Enzymes, Cell Structures, Proteins, Carbohydrates, Membrane Transport, Metabolism, Molecular Genetics, and Cell Division. Each general topic area has more specific processes.

In the Classroom:
This website is definitely one for your interactive whiteboard or projector. What a fantastic way to visually display what you are teaching in class! After viewing the animation, have students write a script of what is occurring in the cell in order to understand the process. Students can work as a team or individually and then present their understanding dramatically to the class. Create multimedia or conventional presentations to show understanding and create notes and study materials for the class. Since the animations do not include sound, have students create podcasts or other audio recordings to explain the processes. For podcasts, use a site such as PodOmatic (reviewed here). Have groups identify problems that can occur with each process and the resulting problems for the cell and disease states that can result. Have students use correct vocabulary and labeled cell parts in all communication.
