Interact with the Human Body!

Welcome back!  It's time again to start another school year, and I'm sure you are all running around like mad getting everything ready for a perfect start.  With all that running and preparing, you may be wondering if your brain may be about to explode, or your heart may thump out of your chest, or your adrenal glands are working non-stop!  Well, maybe the site I am sharing for today may help you find out a little more about each of these as well as the rest of the human body!  Check out BioDigital Human!




From the site itself, 
"BioDigital Human is a virtual 3D body that brings to life thousands of medically accurate anatomy objects and health conditions in an interactive Web-based platform."

The 3D display is wonderfully interactive!  You can build each system on the skeleton, adding or removing to show just what you need.  Within each system, you can add or remove parts and learn about each organ.  Clicking on an organ will zoom in and display specific information about that part.  And I feel like I should also let you know that this anatomical viewer is 100% anatomically correct...if you get my meaning....just make sure you don't put yourself in an awkward position if you allow students to use this site.



Have a wonderful school year! 

And don't forget that I love your comments and feedback!  Just as a side note, I would ask that if you leave a comment and you share a link in your comment, please type the whole URL, rather than putting text in place of the link.  For example, instead of putting My Blog please put http://thepenguinsslide.blogspot.com instead.  Thank you!
