NANSLO Remote Lab Activity: Diseased Cell
This NANSLO lab activity is self-contained and can be used as a diseased cell lab activity in biology, anatomy and physiology, cell biology, and pathophysiology courses. In this activity, prepared slides of pathological tissues are compared to normal tissues to characterize disease effects on tissues and cells. The lab activity includes background information on cells and the impact of diseases on them, pre-lab exercises, lab exercises, and summary questions.

- Quality Note:
- Curriculum expert in this discipline worked with Discipline Panel of faculty to define learning objectives needed for this lab activity. During development, teleconferences were held to discuss lab activity being developed. Draft activity was posted to listserv for review by Discipline Panel and other faculty in that discipline. Based on feedback, lab activity was modified prior to posting as final. Experts in remote web-based science labs who are also science faculty worked together to define the web-enabled interface design used by students to perform the lab activity via the Internet and created the lab setup (robotics, scientific equipment, and items needed to complete the lab activity) testing it with lab technicians and others prior to launching the final lab activity.
