eDNA LE
eDNA is a digital tool for simulation of genetic engineering exercises, mainly directed towards learning
situations at college level. eDNA makes it possible for you to carry out as many DNA-exercises as you want,
with as many students as you like. This is often not economically feasible with real biotechnical exercises. What is the difference between eDNA LE and eDNA?
eDNA LE is a smaller version of eDNA and is designed using the same framework but with a smaller price.
The most significant difference is the number of available exercises and the construction of the exercises. In
eDNA LE all exercises are performed using the electrophoresis simulator while in eDNA other tools such as
agar plate, PCR and spectrophotometers are used. How can I use eDNA with my students?
Along with the eDNA software, student manuals to several different exercises are included. The students
carry out exercises that closely resemble real-life research, in order to get a feeling for how genetic
engineering is carried out in the laboratory. The exercises are also designed to give basis for thorough
analysis. In an educational situation you can let one or more students work with their computer(-s) where
they carry out the included exercises.
Easy to use
eDNA is designed to function as an educational material where the emphasis is on learning and analysis.
Hence much effort has been made to make the program as easy as possible to work with. As a teacher you
are not supposed to spend a lot of time showing how the program works, instead you should be able to
spend time on the studends’ learning. The eDNA software notices if you are doing something wrong and
automatically gives advice about how the program should be used - so you can focus on your students and
not on the computers.
Exercises
The exercises in eDNA LE are based on using the electrophoresis simulator as an analysis tool.
In the software you can carry out several different exercises, with many different genomes and enzymes.
eDNA LE is non-linear, which means that genomes and enzymes may be combined in any chosen order.
