Study Human Anatomy in 3-D

I was assisting a Science teacher today with her interest in doing some interactive stuff with anatomy.  Here are a couple of things I shared with her.

In regards to anatomy, if you study human anatomy, have you tried this out - BioDigital Human - great with the interactive whiteboard.  Works best in Chrome (because of GL Web requirements).
Zygote Body is another 3-D interactive display of the human anatomy; simpler version.
For the iPad, Anatomy 4D is an amazing Augmented Reality app that used a "target" (piece of paper that you can print).  Then you can manipulate the body around and view system layers together or individually.

Does This Scare You?

Found this provoking video on Twitter.  Although it is from a business blog, Kneale Mann, it is a good reality check of what our now and future digitally-native students are and what they demand from their education.

This video talks about Augmented Reality or AR; somewhat new technology, yet been out for awhile in some areas like the military.  AR will soon be moving into (some avenues, already is) the Education field.  If you are not familiar with Augmented Reality, Vicki Davis, edublogger from Georgia, gives a good explanation.
