Anatomy & Physiology Revealed is the ultimate interactive cadaver dissection experience. This state-of-the-art tutorial uses cadaver photos combined with a layering technique that allows the student to peel away layers of the human body to reveal structures beneath the surface. Anatomy & Physiology Revealed offers animations, radiologic imaging, audio pronunciations, and a comprehensive quizzing tool. This tutorial can be used as part of any one or two semester undergraduate Anatomy & Physiology course; it is available as a stand-alone or can be combined with any of McGraw-Hill's Anatomy & Physiology textbooks.
Key Features
New Organ System Added -- The Integumentary System has been added to the list of organ systems included in this program. All layers of the skin will be included and this new section will also feature histology images and full coverage of the dermis, epidermis, hair shaft, specific glands, etc.
Expanded Skeletal and Joint Coverage -- The Skeletal System and Muscular System have been separated into each their own system allowing for substantially expanded information to be provided in each. The Skeletal System will now include full coverage of joint dissections. 75 NEW photos of disarticulated bones have been added.
NEW Histology Section! -- Version 2.0 of Anatomy & Physiology Revealed includes a new button for histology views to support every body system. Students can access this information by clicking on the microscope icon located on the navigation bar.
NEW! Expanded Quizzing Types and Options -- Physiology animation quizzes have been added to Skeletal, Muscular and Nervous Systems. In addition, the user can now select the number of questions he/she wants included in each quiz (10, 25 or ALL).
NEW! Navigation and Interface changes!
A new "Smart" (google-like) search button has been added and integrated across all systems.
Tags are now color coded. All tags pertaining to the given system one color and reference structures not part of that system are another color.
A recent research study proved that students using APR in the lab performed nearly 2x better than students using traditional methods (lab manual + animal specimen).
Your students will perform better if you incorporate APR into the laboratory and lecture.
? SHOW: Payman Nasr Study Results p. 32 figure 1. (See handout )
? ASK: Would you like to participate in a study we are conducting to prove this product improves student performance?
How do you strive to improve student success rates in this course?
63% of students in a recent study stated that APR encouraged an active-learning process compared to 31% who said the same about traditional lab.
APR encourages active learning by enabling students to drive their own learning process.
What is the primary goal of the laboratory component of this course?
SHOW: Payman Nasr Study Results p. 32/33 figure 2. (See handout)
75% of students in a recent study indicated they routinely used APR to study on their own, vs. 29% who used traditional lab materials to study on their own.
How much time are your students spending studying on their own?
? SHOW: Payman Nasr Study Results p. 32/33 figure 3. (See handout)
? SHOW: APR- Open the program, show nervous/dissection/cranial nerves/CN V trigeminal/GO. Peel away layers, show tags, show ghosting. Quickly let you professor drive so they can experience how easy it is.
? Students report that APR is easy to use and encourages them to study outside of lecture and lab.
? A recent APR reviewer stated, ? APR is the answer to making A&P a fun course?
Customer Concern: We don?t use cadavers. Acknowledge the concern: I can see how you might think you have to use cadavers to use this product. It is a common misconception.
Probe to understand the concern: What do you use? Why don?t you use cadavers at your school? Would you if you could? Resolve: Let me show you how you can use APR to effectively integrate cadavers in your course and enhance your current lecture/lab experience. Check for acceptance: How does that sound?
Cutomer Concern:I have recommended media products to my students before, and they don?t see the value. It is an added expense that gets wasted.
Probe to Understand the concern: What types of media have you used in the past? How did you integrate it into your course? Ackonledge Concern: I can understand your concern. Our research has shown that students do use APR when it is incorporated into the lecture and/or lab. Resolve: I would love to show you a few ways instructors are using APR in their teaching that will help engage your students and perhaps impact their evaluations at the end of the year. Check for acceptance: Can I share some of these teaching strategies with you?
Customer Concern: I am pretty happy with the textbook and media I am using now. Everything is working fine.
Prob eto understand the concern: McGraw-Hill has been doing lots of research lately on improving student success and I am interested in getting your perspective. How do your failure rates in this course compare to other courses in the department? Resolve: Could I share some of the research with you that confirms APR improves student performance. Check for acceptance:Would you be interested in doing your own study?
I can appreciate your candor. Would you mind if I asked you a few questions about student performance in your course?
APR offers students JUST THE RIGHT AMOUNT of Physiology, the program allows you to show an anatomical figure on an actual cadaver and then immediately show a physiology animation related to the anatomy. Show the example posted on eSales marketing docs called, "dissection to animation reinforcement".
How do your students effectively learn physiology? What are you using to teach them physiology?
A1: How well do your students make the connection between the anatomical cat the human? A2: That is excellent. You are very fortunate to have a cadaver lab. Outside of lab time what access do your students have to "practice" material R1: You mentioned earlier that most of your students were headed toward a career in the allied health or medical field. Do you agree that is important for your students to have practice with real human specimens prior to entering their clinical field? R2: Would it be helpful to have a resource that would give your students 24-hour access to a real human cadaver? APR provides 24/7 access to a human cadaver that can be examined and dissected. Also available are radiological images and animations.
What is the primary dissection specimen that you are using in the lab? (You are asking this probe to see if they use cadavers, cat, etc.)
APR offers THE MOST EFFICIENT self-testing program out there. The results page offers students a list of what they got wrong along with links back into the program for study (and quick links back to the results page!). This allows students to quickly narrow down what they need to study instead of studying the same things over and over again.
How do your students study for quizzes, exams? Do most of your students have limited time they can spend on their studies and they need to make the most of that time?
With APR your students can have immediate access to a "Google-like" search engine that provides them with a listing of dissections, animations, radiological images and self-test related to that term. Show the search feature on APR. Type in Brachial Plexus and show the terms related to this structure.
Do you provide your students with a list of terms that they will need to learn for your course? What do students typically do with that list? How are they able to find learning material specific to that term?
