Developing an Interactive 3D Learning Experience to Help Students Understand Key Regulatory Processes Associated with Glycolysis
Abstract
Recent recommendations for undergraduate biologyinstruction emphasize teaching foundational biological
principles and helping students transfer these principles to
more complex biological phenomena. These curricular
endeavors can be facilitated by the incorporation of
interactive visualization materials. The following research
project was developed to explore whether a visual
interactive didactic tool could be developed to improve
learning outcomes for undergraduate biology students on
the topic of allosteric regulation within the context of
glycolysis. The results of this research could be beneficial
for improving the development of interactive applications
for science education.
