The
Fetal Pig provides a comprehensive investigation of anatomical
structures and biological functions common to mammals. The teacher's
guide provides a valuable set of classroom activities and projects
which can be easily incorporated into lesson plans. Students use
the software to complete the projects.
The
Fetal Pig makes an excellent alternative to dissection and is
also often used by teachers to prepare students for hands-on lab
experiences. In the software, textual information is dynamically
linked to detailed, colorful graphics and digitally photographed
images. Activities include an identification game, an anatomical
probe and multiple choice quiz.
