Why this works for anatomy and physiology
A conventional introductory anatomy and physiology course is difficult to teach in an effective and engaging way—it can be challenging for students to understand the intricacies of the brain and spinal cord or the function of the organ systems with flat images in lectures and print textbooks.
Through interactive exercises, simulations and videos, Top Hat Intro Course for Anatomy and Physiology encourages students to understand, retain and apply the science of the human body in a classroom setting.
