Abstract
From a previous innovations project during 2002/2003, the feasibility of producing and editing digital video of experimental microbiological procedures was established. The digital video was produced for eventual use on the Level 1 Introductory Microbiology within the University of Wolverhampton virtual learning environment (WOLF), to improve an understanding of the principles and practice of experimental procedures encountered on the module. In addition to the video sequences, supportive animations of the practical exercises were produced, to be viewed eventually by students in association with the video also via WOLF. The end of the previous project had produced several video and animation sequences, although these had not, at that time, been added to the WOLF topic. To provide an effective package of video and animation sequences to fully support the practical component of the module, more sequences were required, together with refinement of existing material. In addition, following integration into the WOLF topic, an analysis of the effectiveness of the sequences, in supporting an understanding of the theory and practice of the experimental exercises, was considered to be of value.
