Biology Animation Library

Biology Animations Carnegie Mellon's Office of Technology for Education and Department of Biological Sciences create multimedia materials for teaching and learning Biology. After an analysis of a number of Biology courses was performed to identify when and how shared concepts where taught, a team of biologists, media programmers, and learning experts came together to create animations designed to improve understanding of some of the main concepts taught in Modern Biology and Biochemistry. Phosopholipid Membranes Tutorial page describing the construction and properties of Biological Membranes. Biological Membranes Biological membranes are dynamic structures composed of a diverse set of phospholipid molecules and proteins. Phase Transition This tutorial explains how phospholipids bilayers undergo to a cooperative phase transition or melting that is similar to protein denaturation. back to index Signal Transdaction Serine Protease Uniport - Glucose Transport Symport - Lactose Permease Transporter ATP Synthesis

IDP #1: Exploration - Case Studies DIDASKALIA FYSIKVN EPISTHMVN History | BSCS More than 50 years ago, a 184-pound metal ball changed the face of science education in the U.S. The ball, known as Sputnik, was launched by the Soviet Union on October 4, 1957, and circled the Earth every 92 minutes at a speed of 18,000 miles per hour. It emitted a radio broadcast beep-beep-beep in A-flat for 21 days. The relentless beep distressed Americans, reminding them that the Soviets had won the race to space with the first-ever successful launch of a satellite. The Americans' failed attempt two months later with a much smaller satellite that blew up on the launch pad didn't help reduce feelings of loss. Critics quickly began accusing the United States of falling behind the Soviets in science and technology education. The National Science Foundation (NSF) was encouraged by Congress to fund the development of those materials. “The situation in biology was different from that in the physical sciences,” recalled Hiden Cox, executive director of AIBS in 1956.
