Cool link to a Blood Typing simulation

[DollyM]

We were having trouble in biology lab on Friday answering the questions related to blood typing ... and I had to go round up a nurse to help us out - she linked me to this game which pretty cool (only slightly "lame") and the page has links to other simulations, too. It's a handy little resource.

Thanks for taking the time to post it!

I only took the time to try one patient, but got him well. I like the way that you had to come up with a second correct option in addition to the first, obvious, one.

Thanks again!

That was fun! When I teach Biology, I have my students type their own blood. Sometimes someone doesn't want to, but they are usually so fascinated they don't mind the finger prick that much! ;) If they really don't want to type their own blood, I get synthetic blood from Carolina Supply (http://www.carolina.com/) and let them practice on that.
