Content- This game covered the concepts of the hierarchy of life from cells to ecosystems. This is the idea of classifying systems from lower to higher or maybe a better way to say it is from smallest to largest. It demonstrates how one entity fits into another. Sort of like those little stacking painted dolls that look like wooden eggs, or maybe a child’s toy. This activity shows the hierarchy of life and different levels build upon the others. Each screen shows different organisms and I click and drag to put them into the correct category. The game reviews the kingdom, phylum, class, order, genus, species of different organisms ie plants and animals and bacteria and protists, and fungi
Learning- I have always been confused by populations and communities and this gave me a visual and hands-on example to help me remember. I am a global learner and do not want to know the steps of a process until I get the broad overview. So this game provided me with the steps but also I could manipulate the “big picture” and still have all of the information in front of me in color and organized. I also like the option of clicking on a vocabulary term and getting the definition on the screen while I study. The concepts are not confusing, I just never really took the time to see the patterns. Plus I liked the pictures and colors actually to show the cells, etc. I could see the “small to large”. In future activities, I will probably have more questions regarding the content and concepts.
The following content is
1. Outbreaks (pandemics) – youtube

2. From the Vaccination Center at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia – What are the different types of vaccines?
