A Level animal cell structure and function powerpoint quiz and worksheets

Information:
The PowerPoint activity/quiz for AS level students focuses only on animal cell structure but plant cell and prokaryotic cell ones are being developed. It is designed as a self-study topic by the students in that they will sit at a computer terminal and work through the activities.
Note that they will need to enable macros for this quiz to work. The slides will not click forward if you click on the main body of the slide. They will only move forward by either clicking action buttons, using the scroll wheel on your mouse or the PowerPoint arrows on the lower left corner or by choosing the correct answer in the quiz.
I prefer to give students the PowerPoint show version of the presentation, so they can’t mess around with the design. Hence I have added a .pps version of the presentation also. This show has been set up to prevent students from scrolling through the slides before each activity/question is complete , and is a technique I’m sure the generation of online education should be able to appreciate, so much so they might learn to do it themselves. (Note I will be adding advice on how I set the Presentation up, make a .pps file and control scroll through.)
The first activity slide involves the students clicking on information buttons to reveal the name and function of the organelles (which is important as these are obviously a diagrammatic representation). They can fill in the two associated worksheets:
a) Labelling the diagram
b) Structure and function of organelles. As we know Edexcel like the students to be able to draw or describe an organelle as well as state the function (just double check they do not actually believe the organelles are the colours I have chosen!). The table should have large enough spaces to allow for diagrams and/or descriptions.
These worksheets are designed to be printed off and written on. If you want the students to type up their answers on the computer then they need to be modified so I have added a second version of each worksheet (with online added to name).
Once the students have completed the worksheets they can work through the quiz. This is not designed as a test but to conslidate their learning so there is no mark at the end-they have to find the correct answer.
Hope you like it and please do give me feedback.

Online education is also good specially if you have very good and talented students.;*’

Online education is also as good as conventional education but interpersonal interaction might be limited.:~’

Hi, sorry for not replying quicker but I was on holiday. You have a really good point about answer sheets. I will certainly try and get some added. Thanks for the suggestion
