Quizzes
Write genetics quiz items at the level of an undergraduate majors genetics course. Four options, one best answer, and every item must require a deduction or a calculation. Item types to rotate through: 1. Cross problems with stated genotypes, asking for an offspring probability or a phenotypic ratio. 2. Non-Mendelian outcomes: incomplete dominance, codominance, epistasis, pleiotropy, lethal alleles, multiple…
Tests
Build a graded genetics exam. Blueprint by points: 25 percent Mendelian probability and cross problems, 20 percent non-Mendelian and gene interaction, 15 percent pedigree analysis, 20 percent linkage and mapping, 20 percent population genetics. Format: about 60 percent multiple choice or numeric-answer items, 30 percent multi-part free response where part b depends on part a, and 10 percent short interpretive…
Flashcards
Make genetics flashcards that store the tools a student needs during problem solving, not loose vocabulary. Required card families: 1. Diagnostic ratios. Front gives an observed phenotypic ratio, back names the underlying interaction and the genotypes that produce it. 2. Pedigree signatures. Front describes a pattern such as affected males in every generation with no male-to-male transmission, back names the mode of…
