Genetics and Evolution vs Dilemma Game

Genetics and Evolution solves four types of basic problems commonly taught in introductory genetics courses in high schools and colleges. This app was originally designed for the Duke University (and Coursera) Introduction to Genetics and Evolution course, but it is helpful for any students, teachers, or practitioners in genetics! Problems solved include: * Genetic cross mapping -- accepts genotype counts for three genes from a "test cross", and uses the counts to infer the gametic phase, the recombination rate between the three genes, and the gene order. * Breeder's equation heritability -- with any three of the following values, calculates the fourth: starting phenotype, selected phenotype, response phenotype, broad-sense heritability. * Hardy-Weinberg -- accepts genotype counts for a single gene and outputs observed genotype frequencies, expected genotype frequencies, and the coefficient of inbreeding (F). * Population Growth -- with any of the following 3 values, calculates the fourth: Initial Population, Final Population, Time in years, Growth Rate (or separate birth/death rates) * Self Test quiz-- quiz yourself on some common basic genetic terms. * Allele Freak: track and graph the fate of alleles over multiple generations based on relative fitness, genetic drift etc * Cross Simulator: simulate various types of Mendelian crosses. results are displayed in Punnett Square format, and resulting genotypes/phenotypes and ratios are displayed Use this app to check your answers, or better yet, to generate a nearly infinite number of practice problems! Features Dropbox integration for depositing a pdf of practice problems.

The Dilemma Game app has been developed by Erasmus University Rotterdam (EUR) to stimulate awareness of, and an open and critical discussion about, integrity and professionalism at university. The app based on the EUR Code of Integrity which focuses on academic, social, and organisational integrity as well as the Netherlands Code of Conduct for Research Integrity which focuses on academic integrity. Discussing all these forms of integrity is vital as it contributes to an open, safe, and inclusive (research) culture. The game consists of dilemmas with four possible courses of action which the players can choose from. It is important to note that due to the complexity of integrity-related dilemmas, there is no winning or losing in this game. Rather, by defending and discussing these choices in the context of a critical dialogue, the game aims to support all university staff in further developing their moral compass. The game can be used in a variety of settings, and therefore is has three modes: Individual, Group, and Lecture. For further information about each of these modes, please consult the instruction section in this app. The Dilemma Game app is a digitalized version of the Dilemma Game card game, that was developed as one of the initiatives of the EUR Taskforce Scientific Integrity (chaired by prof. dr. Finn Wynstra). In 2020 the game was digitized into an app by a taskforce coordinated by Mathieu van Kooten (Academic Affairs), in collaboration with EUR Web & App Development. In 2024 the app was upgraded through the broadening of the scope by the addition of social (and the option to add organizational) dilemmas. The integrity expert reviews comments in the app for academic integrity are written by prof. dr. Hub Zwart and the ones on social integrity are written by prof. dr. Muel Kaptein. If other experts are consult this will be added in the expert review itself. This app is freely available to all institutions and researchers in The Netherlands and beyond.
