  1. The Krebs Cycle Card Game and Other Diversions H2O Copies of the card game suitable for printing can be downloaded at www.uni.edu/berg coenzyme A The reverse sides of the compound cards give the structure of the compounds. acetyl CoA citrate oxaloacetate isocitrate Another way to play the game: with the program Inspiration (Inspiration Software, USA) malate carbon dioxide 2-oxoglutarate =α-ketoglutarate carbon dioxide H2O fumarate coenzyme A BEFORE: The student starts with instructor-given set of compounds, and forms them into the cycle. Files that contain these images are found at the download site at www.uni.edu/berg. succinylCoA succinate coenzyme A The printed cards—cut along the lines. The whole game in a plastic bag—complete with instructions. AFTER: The student has arranged the cycle. The level of detail is up to the instructor. The cycle could be in place at the start, for instance, with the enzymes to be put in place by the student. Items can be supplied by the instructor or by the student, depending on the level of knowledge expected. There are many ways to display items, including names with notes that become visible when requested. The graphic images and labels can be copied and pasted among formats.
