This free quiz-styled teaching resource is a fun way for educators to explore genetics and genomics concepts, and how they’ll be encountered in a modern healthcare system. Useful as an add-on to existing teaching materials, or as a stand alone activity, this digital resource brings the success of The Genomics Game into a virtual learning environment.
This PowerPoint pack has been developed to allow educators to incorporate the quiz into existing teaching plans, slide decks and resources. Downloadable as a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation, the deck contains both question slides to challenge your learners’ knowledge, and complementary education slides that give extra information and classroom discussion points.
- In slide deck 1 of 2, the themes covered are: DNA, chromosomes, genes and genomics; from genome to proteins; inheritance and variation; and research, techniques and diagnostics.
- In slide deck 2 of 2, the themes covered are: genomics in infection control; recording a medical family history; cancer genomics; how genomic test results affect the family; and about precision medicine and pharmacogenetics.
