Ormandy, Elisabeth; Schwab, Janella C.; Suiter, Samantha; Green, Nicole; Oakley, Janice; Osenkowski, Pamela; Sumner, Christine – American Biology Teacher, 2022
Animal dissection is practiced to varying degrees around the world and is particularly prevalent in North America throughout all levels of education. However, a growing number of studies suggest that nonanimal teaching methods (NAMs) (e.g., virtual anatomy tools and three-dimensional models) are better for achieving learning goals compared to…
