MOD 1

The Mast Cell Universe

Learning Guide



Hello & Welcome to MOD 1

Get ready to start the deep dive into mast cells—what they are, where they are, what they do, and more.

Please read through all the instructions of this Learning Guide before beginning the work of the MOD.

KWL :

To assist in organizing your thinking, download and complete the KWL Chart.

A KWL Chart is a graphic organizer that has three columns:

  • The “K” column is first and stands for “What You Know”
  • The “W” column is next and stands for “What You Want to Know”
  • The “L” column is last and stands for “What You Learned”

Before you begin any of the learning tasks for this MOD, download and complete the KWL Chart. You can type directly onto the form and it’s completed in two parts.

Part 1:

  • In the “K” column, write down everything you currently know about mast cells.
  • In the “W” column, write down what you want to know about mast cells.
  • After you’ve filled in your information for the first two columns, put the KWL Chart aside. DO NOT CLICK SUBMIT.
  • Review and begin the learning tasks of MOD 1. Remember, you must read the required reading for this MOD first and then, after finishing the reading, move on to the required videos to watch, followed by the required websites to explore, and any required supplemental reading.
