"Pre" extension - The first extension creates programming to ask the user for values that are needed to figure out the frequency of individuals showing the recessive trait. This is THE one number needed to calculate all the other frequencies. The frequency of individuals showing the recessive trait is the only one that can be observed in a population BUT it is not always given in the word problem.
"Post" extension - The second will take the frequencies and apply them to an actual population number to generate actual numbers of individuals of the 3 genotypes and numbers of each allele … in that population.

What is 'innate behaviour'? Where does it feature in the environment? And how does it compare to 'learned behaviour? Learn about it in this video by The Virtual School.

This resource consists of four mini units on Open Educational Resources (OER). Mini-units are designed to introduce learners to the following questions: (1) What are OER? (2) What is a Creative Commons (CC) license?, (3) How do I locate, evaluate, and use OER?, and (4) How do I create my own OER?

The material was originally designed for a lunch and learn event targeted at faculty members at a Canadian university.

The materials in this module -- which include PowerPoint slides, two activity worksheets, and a LibGuide -- were developed for a 90-minute "back to basics" professional development workshop for college faculty and staff. The content provides a basic introduction to open educational resources, copyright, and open licenses.

This 4-part course is modified from a FORCE11 Scholarly Communication Institute hosted in 2018. It consists of a syllabus, slides, and instructional strategies designed to introduce open education to novices while also developing a more critical and nuanced understanding of complex issues within open education. Concepts or pieces can be reconfigured or adapted to fit other contexts, including workshops, trainings, and online instruction. The first three days of the course provide a foundation by defining OER and Creative Commons, delineating differences between affordable course material solutions and OER, exploring various OER repositories and evaluation tools, and learning about open pedagogy models. The fourth day of the course uses this foundation to explore and interrogate more complex issues, including labor, technocracy, accessibility, openwashing, and the intersection between privacy and openness. We have structured the content so that anyone with some background in scholarly communication (but perhaps no familiarity with open education) is able to learn from the resources firsthand or efficiently adapt them to teach a Library and Information Science course that covers these topics.

Integrate the fun of video into your classroom with these fun learning activities. Adaptable for different ages and subjects, the video projects can be as simple or elaborate as time, resources, and creativity allow. These creative activities can be customized to meet specific student learning outcomes, goals, and objectives. 

Students massage (by sorts) spreadsheet data to tease out the relationships between latitude, angle of the sun, surface area of light beam and temperature. Also introduces possible confounding variable of elevation and the need to control for elevation.
• Uses data in a spreadsheet (provided) and flashlight beam lab or Sketchup file to see light surface area increase or decrease with angle change.

Important emerging trends in innovation are identified, and their implications for innovation management are explored. Major topics to be discussed include the trend to open information (“open source”) rather than protected intellectual property; the distribution of innovation over many independent but collaborating actors; and toolkits that empower users to innovate for themselves.

Healing Souls is designed to help young women living in the conflicted areas of Pakistan to cope out of depression. The resources will aware as well as empower them with skills on mental health for their well-being.

These slides and handout were developed for a 60-min. cross-training OER session with college staff, and are therefore very general in nature. These materials could be adapted for any general introduction to OER basics and Creative Commons licenses.

The topic deals with the different open licenses to be used for OERs. 

The instructional materials in this module -- which includes a lesson plan, related LibGuide, two options for a citing OER activity, and multimedia citation examples for both APA and MLA style -- were designed by an OER librarian to support a research assignment that required PowerPoint slides, openly licensed multimedia (images, videos, or sound effect clips), and APA style citations.
