Making biology accessible to all
Cell Biology and Genetics
Cell biology focuses on the cell, the building block of life. Biologists in this field study the inner workings of the cell and how they work together as a unit.
Genetics takes a closer look at DNA and how the information on our DNA makes us who we are.
Teach Genetics
Includes lesson plans and in-class activities that help deepen student understanding as well as videos and other things that can supplement lessons.
Tour of the Cell Webquest
In this webquest the student will take a tour through the different types of cells and their respective organelles' functions. This is a great resource that can be used in a lesson to help students recognize the difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, as well as, plant and animal cells.
Slide Screw Up Webquest
This is another webquest that has students learn about the different types of cells using a problem solving method. This webquest could also be used alongside of a lesson on the difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, as well as, plant and animal cells.
Biotechnology Institute: Teacher Resources
Has lesson Plans and helpful videos to illustrate different concepts in Cell Biology and Genetics.
Different ideas for labs that can be done to illustrate concepts in genetics and cell biology. These labs aren't written out but are briefly described in a paragraph.
