The New Virology PowerPoint Learning Series is now available on CD-ROM as a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation featuring new, full color, 3-dimensional graphics. Using a laptop and computer projector, you can now enhance your lectures with the Virology Visual Learning Series. PowerPoint gives you the ability to customize Teach America visuals in a way you never could before. As continuing research makes new information available, you can easily update the text in each visual.
Teach America has produced visuals for basic medical instruction that are in use in most medical schools, universities, and veterinary schools across America. Each of our series has been proven by classroom use to significantly aid in both communication and understanding of the subject area.
The newly revised Virology PowerPoint Learning Series is based on the same 300 images used in the effective Virology Slide Series version. The course was systematically designed to help students learn Virology. The original series was first developed to test a prototype instructional design tool. All of the graphics were created to visualize the instructional goals and objectives. The course is organized in 16 presentations beginning with a general overview of virus structure and multiplication. It then explains in more detail the replication of individual groups of viruses. The course finishes with a summary of viral pathogenesis. To meet your specific needs, course materials can be customized. Call Teach America Corporation for more information.
Computers have revolutionized the way information is being delivered. Teaching institutions are now using the latest technology to project computer images during lectures. This Virology PowerPoint Learning Series utilizes that technology to deliver visually superior images designed to help students understand and retain lectures. Most students (and adults) are primarily visual learners. The high impact graphics help attract and maintain attention. These visuals illustrate and support what you say during lecture, and ensure that the key points are covered.
All of the graphics have been recreated, many of them rendered in three-dimensional form. The visuals still retain the graphic simplicity that helps students learn and recall viral structures and reproductive cycles, but they are now even more visually appealing and memorable. Every element is designed to enhance student retention of material. For example, the structural viral components are color coded (RNA = red, DNA = blue, and proteins = green) to reinforce the concepts being presented. The text is legible, the colors vibrant, and images effective. Many of the graphics have been animated to further enhance the understanding of viral life cycles.
See an example for yourself. You can download the Viral Life Cycle as a PowerPoint file to use in your lecture.
Teach America Corporation copyrights the series, however you may reproduce graphics for student handouts. In addition to the PowerPoint files, an Acrobat version of the Virology PowerPoint Learning Series is included. A complete 6 visual per page handout of the entire series is also included to enable you to print the complete set with one click. Adobe Acrobat Reader is included on the CD-ROM, so even if you don't have PowerPoint, you can still use the images in lecture.
