WebCLS Learning Object Samples

Level 1 Learning Objects

Level 1 Learning Objects consist of simple graphics or images that can be used by a faculty member to show students examples of specific bacterial organisms. An example of a Level 1 LO would be a picture of a different reactions on urea agar or CAMP test on Blood Agar Plates. Explore some Level 1 LOs:

Urea test	view LO #236	view LO properties
Camp test	view LO #127	view LO properties
Growth on MacConkey agar	view LO #168	view LO properties
Biochemical Panel - Escherichia coli	view LO #32	view LO properties

Level 2 Learning Objects

Level 2 Learning Objects are slightly more complex and consist of an animation or video clip showing a specific mechanism. An example of this level might be a video of a focusing up and down on a parasite. Explore some Level 2 LOs:

Protein synthesis / translation	view LO #26	view LO properties
Focusing on Giardia lamblia	view LO #67	view LO properties
E. histolytica trophozoite	view LO #64	view LO properties
Wet preparation of Campylobacter showing darting motility	view LO #291	view LO properties
Direct agglutination	view LO #89	view LO properties
Positive catalase	view LO #277	view LO properties

Level 3 Learning Objects

Level 3 Learning Objects require specific student interaction. Explore a Level 3 LO:

Incubation temperature and atmosphere	view LO #256	view LO properties
Indole test	view LO #188	view LO properties
Identify the organism	view LO #118	view LO properties

LOs may be put together to make for a lesson plan. In the example below, a level 2 LO and a level 3 LO could strengthen a lesson on interpretation of hemolysis on Blood Agar Plates:

Hemolysis	view LO #115, Level 2	view LO properties
Hemolysis discrimination	view LO #240, Level 3	view LO properties
