Visualizing Cell Processes

One DVD containing the whole series of 5 programs available on VHS (see video version of this title). A comprehensive program for teaching, learning, and understanding cell biology. The DVD includes menu access to 52 narrated modules that together define life at the cell level. DVD resolution is twice that of VHS, offering remarkable observations of living cells and beautifully crafted graphics that allow students to visualise and understand cell functions. Video sequences can be examined frame by frame at high resolution, and the action can be slowed or sped up, offering unparalleled opportunities for analysis and discussion. The DVD includes integrated study guides for each of the 52 narrated modules with each module broken down into concept-based learning bits. The illustrated glossary contains over 500 entries creating a comprehensive concept vocabulary for cell biology. The Learning Guide includes 14 printable posters summarising each major cell process (mitosis, Krebs cycle, DNA replication, etc.), self-tests, and extended resources that integrate the latest discoveries and applications of cell biology.
