This Canvas module is an active learning step-by-step tutorial on solving a Hardy-Weinberg problem. In the tutorial, students take two quizzes (one at the beginning and one at the end) and a scaffolded activity.
Hardy_Weinberg Tutorial (via Canvas LMS)
This Canvas module is an active learning step-by-step tutorial on solving a Hardy-Weinberg problem. In the tutorial, students take two quizzes (one at the beginning and one at the end) and a scaffolded activity. The problem is based on the following scenario.
Scenario: In a population of 1150 frogs in which the striped morphology is dominant to solid color (non-striped morphology), 225 are solid colored.
As students work through the activity, they are required to identify (perform) each step and are given choices to select the correct steps. Incorrect selections provide feedback to guide the student to the correct step. Correct selections explain why the step is correct.
There are two tutorial choices based on the instructor's preference. The first focuses on finding the values of the allele frequencies and genotypic frequencies. The second contains an additional component in which students use the chi-square test to determine if the population is equilibrium.
Below are the links to the tutorials. It is recommended that the instructor import the module to a Canvas sandbox before incorporating into a course.
