Dale Muzzey Animations, Antibody Diversity Video and Edpuzzle

 Dale Muzzey has made many useful and beautiful animations over the years.  Much of his content is available at Biovisions at Harvard.  Many of the animations were made in Shockwave Flash, which is no longer supported.  One of my favorite is a Flash animation on antibody diversity.  Here is a youtube recording of the animation.

I turned this into an Edpuzzle to make it more interactive for my students.

How to answer free response questions on the AP Biology Exam

For students: 

Below are two edpuzzles that will help you learn how to answer AP Biology free response questions. I've been grading the exam every year since 2003 and have read tens of thousands of essays over the past 17 years (85,000 is my best guess). If you follow my method for answering questions, you will do well on the exam. I strongly encourage you to visit AP Central, the College Board's website.  You will find past exam questions that you can use to practice on.

For Educators: 

Our school is currently teaching on a blended, hybrid style in which students may choose, on a day-to-day basis, to be in-person or remote. When in person, we wear both masks and face shields. Obviously, this kind of teaching demands significant flexibiltiy. I played with EdPuzzle for years and have found it to be particularly useful now. In this post, I share two EdPuzzles that I made to teach students how to answer long and short free response questions. Feel free to use with attribution.
