Once dissection is complete, the frog’s organs are exposed for further study. Students can try dissecting a virtual specimen with all the trappings that come with the real procedure-minus the mess of course! Besides a virtual chloroformed specimen, the app comes with all the dissection tools and detailed instructions to complete the procedure.
This iPad app is suitable for middle-school students who are learning about organs and organ systems as part of their life science curriculum. Frog Dissection is a best biology app for high school biology students.įrog Dissection from Punflay, is a greener alternative for teaching dissection in the classroom. Students drive a scalpel or scissors with their fingertips, 'lift' tissues or organs out of the way, and spin organs around while the narrator explains what they are seeing on the screen. Works on iPads, desktops, laptops, netbooks and interactive whiteboardsįrog Dissection gives students an appreciation of the layers of a frog's tissue in a system approach to anatomy and function. Individual 3-D organ views and informationĭissection tools like pins, marker, scissors, scalpel, and forcepsĭetailed labels, information on frog classification, lifecycle, and organ functionsĪnatomical comparison of human and frog organs This is an excellent use of touch-driven educational activity that also happens to be odorless and environmentally sensitive. Frogs have been a long time model of understanding the function, position and relative size of organs, tissues, and systems. Once a student exposes the virtual organs, a simple click brings up a window that features a fully "spinnable" computer-generated image of the organ as well as an informative description.Įveryone is curious what the lies beyond the skin. Users can then follow the step-by-step instructions (with voice-over) that help them insert pins where needed and use a marker, scissors, scalpel and forceps to remove the frog's skin. Launch the app, and an upside-down frog appears on a blue field. The frog dissection app should help win the day for those out to save the frogs.
