 The human body is truly an interactive organism—every system, every organ, and every cell is connected in some way. Using this three-part series of multimedia CD-ROMs, students will be able to explore the interconnectivity that makes the human body’s ten systems work together. The circulatory, respiratory, digestive, urinary, endocrine, reproductive, lymphatic, integumentary, nervous, and musculoskeletal systems are discussed in detail, providing basic facts and interesting information about the anatomy, physiology, and common ailments of each system. The programs also address how each system functions as part of a larger organism, interacting day and night to ensure overall health no matter what the activity: sitting at a desk, eating lunch, driving a car, running a marathon, or sleeping.
Each CD-ROM includes the following features: • Animated graphics to illustrate system components and demonstrate system functions • Interactive glossary of terms • Self-assessment quizzes that test retention of the material • Printable summary documents for each body system • Printable PDF instructor’s guide for each CD-ROM Correlates to National Science Education Standards and National Health Education Standards.
