Based at the University of Alberta, the Digital Teaching Resources
Laboratory (DiTRL) is a computer lab for students and faculty designed
to help undergraduates learn about biology. DiTRL's site contains
instructional multimedia resources that will be useful to a wide range
of people, as well as a database of lesson plans and such. Visitors can
click on the Instructional Multimedia area to look through multimedia
clips on a range of topics, including botany, ecology, and entomology.
The Cell Biology section is quite well-developed, and includes
interactive activities like "Animal cell mix and match" and "Nerve
Action Potential." The Database link leads to an online collection that
includes animations, video clips, and text excerpts. Currently, the
entire database contains over 8,900 items, and visitors can browse
around at their leisure or perform a full-text search. Finally, the site
is rounded out by the option for visitors to provide their own
feedback.
