Cano, Junar S.; Olvis, Paul R.; Disca, Berlita Y.; Docena, Aida F. – International Journal of Technology in Education, 2022
The essence of Genetics lies in the understanding of the concepts of Central Dogma of Molecular Biology. Although these ideas are fundamental to the field, they are notoriously difficult to understand and visualize. While simulation-based instructional materials are found to improve the teaching-learning process in science education, little has…
