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.

The Power of Infographics

Infographics are a great way to share information in a visually appealing way.  Another great thing about infographics is that because they are created digitally and designed to live digitally, you can embed them in your site or Moodle course for student to view.  Good infographics pull the viewer in by their eye-catching visual appeal, then share important information while they hold your attention.  You can embed infographics in most any site and especially in Moodle.  Put an infographic in an HTML box on a side column.

Visual.ly is one of many sites devoted to some great infographics that you can embed in to your web site or Moodle course.  If you are not sure how to embed an infographic in to a site or Moodle course, please visit this post explaining this process.

Here are some great infographics I found regarding space:
