Learning Objectives

At the end of this simulation, you will be able to:
  • Examine the phenomenon of evolution closely.

           a. Analyze the significant contributions of evolutionary processes to the current state of life on Earth

           b. Outline the historical development of the theory of evolution.

           c. Elaborate on the principles of natural selection, genetic drift, and mutation.

           d. Utilize the Hardy-Weinberg principle as a tool to illustrate genetic diversity in the context of evolution.

  • Provide a description and comparative analysis of the structural and functional organization found within the primary life kingdoms.

           a. Elaborate on the evolutionary connections that connect and differentiate the five kingdoms.

           b. Foresee the physiological and anatomical characteristics exhibited by organisms belonging to specific kingdoms and their subgroups.

           c. Clarify the reasons behind the exclusion of viruses from classification within any kingdom.


How do virtual labs work?

Enhance students' involvement in science by immersing them in interactive learning scenarios. Create simulations for experiments, provide hands-on training in laboratory techniques, and convey theoretical concepts through captivating visual experiences to improve their overall long-term learning outcomes.

  • Access web-based simulations that are compatible with laptops, Chromebooks, tablets, and iPads, eliminating the need for software installation.
  • Incorporate a teacher dashboard for automated grading and monitoring of student progress.
  • Utilize embedded quizzes to assist students in mastering scientific content.
  • Comprehensive repository of educational materials, including learning resources, lab reports, videos, theory pages, graphics, and more.
