Introduction to Genetics

Each Unit is self-contained and has a set of learning goals. Lessons use a variety of techniques in presenting the material including interactive tutorials, problem-solving drills, and definitions matching exercises. There are several levels of help available and feedback on incorrect responses is problem-specific. While working through a lesson, students may choose at any time to:

	Review lesson instructions
	Access lesson-specific help screens or a built-in calculator
	Repeat portions of the lesson, take the Quiz, or Exit

Each Unit has a final Quiz with ten randomly selected questions from a data bank so that students will rarely see the same sequence of questions no matter how many times they repeat the Quiz.

Easy to Use - Interactive!

Everything your students need is built right into the lessons. Active keys are always displayed on-screen. When students need help with math, they can easily access a calculator and when they are uncertain there are plenty of “Help” screens to point the way. Careful coaching on key points plus frequent questions help keep students interested and involved. Utilities Help You Customize the Lessons - Track Student Progress

Included in the package is a Management Utilities disk with two helpful Instructor Utilities. The Text Reference System allows you to add textbook references for each lesson.
