Welcome to Cell Zone®, LLC

At Cell Zone, LLC, we offer biology education products that incorporate universal design for learning (UDL) to include more learners in biology. Our first three products cover important topics in almost all biology classes: cells, biological molecules, and cell division.

Cell Zone® products promote inquiry

Begin using Cell Zone products in your classroom and your students will immediately be involved, cooperating, and asking questions about biology. The products are designed to promote student interactions and learning about essential biology topics.

Cell Zone® products were designed by a teacher for teachers

Dawn Tamarkin designed these products based on her 16 years of experience in teaching biology at a community college. The products are geared to help students learn essential biology information (and not just memorize it) through hands-on interactions and inquiry. Regardless of a students' abilities/disabilities or learning style, these products will enable learning.

Cell Zone® products reach a wide range of students

Although developed by a college professor, Cell Zone, LLC products work for students of many ages.  The concept of a cell is in the National Life Science Standards starting in upper elementary grades (typically, grade 5) and continues in the National Standards in middle school and high school.  The cell is then also taught in college introductory biology classes and cell biology classes.  For this reason, the Dynamic Cell Models can be used with all ages from 5th graders through college students.  Similarly, our other products can also be used with all age groups where their concepts are taught (middle/high school through college).

The products of Cell Zone, LLC, are based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation (under grants #0618182 & #0726473).
