Cell Structure and Function interactive lesson plan

DP 2 Biology Unit Science Resources Lesson Topic in DP2 Bio How it can be used Genetics This lesson includes tutorial information, interactive media, and assessment. In this lesson, students explore the preservation and expression of genetic information within the cell. Students make predictions about DNA replication based on its structure, and then assess their predictions after viewing a short video. They then view a video about mitosis and discuss how DNA replication relates to cell division. After using animations to learn about transcription and translation, students apply what they have learned to analyze a short DNA sequence and relate a sequence difference to one of Mendel's traits. Finally, students locate various regulatory and coding features of a human DNA sequence in an interactive activity and relate these features to what they have learned about gene expression. Cellular Biology This lesson includes images, background information, interactive media, a simulation, and videos. The lesson includes a suggested assessment as well. In this activity, students explore the relationship between structure and function in a cell. They start by viewing a variety of specialized cells. They learn the three main parts of a cell -- the nucleus, cytoplasm, and cell membrane -- and discuss generally what each part does. Then, through a Web activity, they explore the gatekeeper role of the cell membrane. They follow up by examining in more detail the organelles located in the cytoplasm. Next, students compare animal and plant cells.

Finally, they explore the similarities and differences among specialized cells. This webquest provides background information as a tutorial on basic biochemistry. The webquest takes students to websites that have information, videos and articles on carbohydrates, organic and inorganic compounds, DNA and RNA, and nucleic acids. This simulation game would be used as an interactive activity once students have a basic foundation in principles of evolution. The activity has an introductory essay for background information and discussion questions. In this interactive feature from the Evolution Web site, take a lighthearted but informative look at the reproductive strategies of this and many other fascinating creatures. This activity would be used in the ecology unit, genetics unit, and it also has tie in with the digestion section. This activity would be whole class, group, and individual as it provides sections for each. This lesson provides background information and thorough tutorial, it also provides several videos, websites, and an interactive activities. This lesson would be used towards the end of the year as a review of multiple concepts. It includes many videos, interactive simulations, activities, discussion areas, and ties to art. This lesson would be used in the forensics section of the DNA Biochem lesson. The lesson includes a full lesson with

background tutorials both written and video. The lesson also includes interactive simulation activities, and an assessment. This lesson would accompany the transport system lesson in the Human Health and Physiology unit. The lesson would be used as a complete section as it has tutorial information, videos, interactive activities, and step by step assignments including an assessment. This website will be used to help students prepare for IB exams, it includes an explanation of assessments, and a breakdown of each unit by assessment statements. This website also includes tutorials, PowerPoints, songs, and the beta version for an app. This website is a comprehensive preparation guide for IB Biology program. This site can be used as a tutorial, as it has powerpoints for each unit, videos and articles for each unit and even current events regularly updated. This website also includes specific resources for the IB like command terms, but it also has general biology information. There are links to simulations, games, labs, and other interactive resources. The site also includes worksheets for each unit, and special links for teachers and students. There are also some great links to TOK, which is required to be implemented, and even how to integrate technology into IB Bio.
