Vitamin village
This educational resource on vitamins A, C, D, E and K and antioxidants is made available freely by the University of Nottingham as part of their open courseware initiative (U-Now). Aimed at biological science undergraduates, especially those studying nutritional sciences, this eLearning package enables users to visit different buildings in a 'village' (a veterinary/farm area, grocers, university, chemist and hospital) to study different aspects of the vitamins. The grocers area also provides interactive activities on the vitamin content of foods, whilst the university area includes self-test questions and a reference list. Created and developed between 2001 and 2008 by Dr John Brameld, Dr Zoe Daniel, Dr Tim Parr and Professor Andy Salter from the Division of Nutritional Sciences, University of Nottingham along with staff of the Information Services Learning Team, and published by the University of Nottingham.
