Conclusion



This web quest was designed to place you and your group into the field of biology and build an appreciation of how scientists collaborate to conduct their research. It allows for the building of social skills that are required not only in sciences but in other disciplines where you need to work as a team and share ideas.

The task of having the group look at the cells is to provide you with a basic understanding and an introduction by exposing you to what makes up a cell and their diversity. The microscopes research is to expose the team to knowledge about the variety of developed tools used to examine cells and microorganisms in the field of biology. This ties in with the practical to provide you with the skills in operating the microscope should you choose to pursue a further career in biology; where you will need this understanding of cell, microscopes and slide preparation.
