 A team
of biologists, media programmers, and learning experts are
creating animations designed to improve understanding of some of the main
concepts taught in Modern Biology and Biochemistry.
|
 |
 We
are developing simulation environments that facilitate multiple, linked
representations of concepts to be used in different learning contexts
that allow for guided inquiry as well as student directed experimentation
and data analysis.
|
|
 As
supplemental learning resources for the OLI course, we are designing
interactive reference pieces to help the students lookup concepts and
data they must internalize or use to understand other concepts.

 Through the OLI project,
Carnegie Mellon adds to
online education the crucial
elements of instructional
design grounded in cognitive
theory, formative evaluation
for students and faculty, and iterative course
improvement based on empirical evidence.
