Product Details
Carolina Biological Supply Company and VictoryXR™ have teamed up to bring you an interactive, Web-based dissection alternative for your classroom! Students learn the anatomy of 2 popular invertebrates—the squid and the starfish—as they dissect each in a virtual lab setting, right on their computer screens. Each separate, engaging experience is guided by Wendy Martin, a national award-winning science teacher.

As students are guided through each dissection, they:

• Utilize virtual dissection tools to complete each dissection and locate important structures
• Learn structural anatomy and corresponding functions as they progress through all the body systems
• Answer assessment questions to check for understanding
• Can pause, rewind, or repeat scenes to maximize their comprehension (user-paced)

Using Carolina preserved specimens, each dissection was recreated in great detail. The true-to-life practice thoroughly covers each step of the dissection procedures, just as students would do if they were dissecting the actual specimens in the classroom. So instructors can feel good about substituting digital dissection for the real thing!
