This "learning tool" is called Understanding Evolution. It is a wonderful,  one-stop destination for educators of any level, the University of California Museum of Paleontology has compiled an inexhaustible resource for teaching evolution in the classroom.

This "learning tool" allows your students to see natural selection in action as it describes the Rise of Antibiotic Resistance. Once you get to the page, click the "Click to View Animation" button and then click the "Narrated" button. Sumanas, Inc.  produced this great animation and many other conceptually concise life science related multimedia. They know how to teach well!

The name of this "learning tool" is called Evolution Lab. Students get to see evolution in action and get to really ask some interesting "what if" questions in this clever and conceptually clear simulation. The simulation was developed by Dr. Leif  Saul and can be found as one of the activities in Biology in Motion.

The name of this "learning tool" is called Evolution.  The elegant and conceptually clean animations of John Kyrk will lead your students through the fascinating world of the evolution of  life on the planet Earth. Just click the small green arrow on the left side to advance the animations.

Challenging, elegant, and very special. Ariel Dolan has created eFloys. They are territorial, have an individual personality, and the ability to evolve. This will take your biology students a little time to master, but once they have it, they will learn a life long lesson on behavior, evolution, and natural selection. This one you need to read the instructions! Visit Ariel Dolan's Artificial Life and Other Experiments to see other cool interactives.

A Brief History of Life is a "learning tool" from the Nova show called Origins. Just click on the "Launch Interactive" button when you get to the page.

The name of this "learning tool" is An Origin of Species. Witness for yourself how a new species can evolve as you observe natural selection and adaptive radiation in action. This interactive activity comes from the PBS web site Evolution of the same name. PBS is a leader in science education and this site is a fine example of this work.

The eSkeletons Project is a technical and imaging marvel. It allows students to study human and primate comparative anatomy. It offers a unique set of digitized versions of skeletons in 2-D and 3-D in full color, animations, and much supplemental information. Quicktime plug-in is required.
