Havlícková, Veronika; Šorgo, Andrej; Bílek, Martin – Problems of Education in the 21st Century, 2023
Hands-on dissections of animals are traditionally regarded as an essential part of biology education. Nowadays, regardless of the reported educational benefits, there is a gradual change in the concept and acceptance of hands-on dissection, leading in many cases to its abandonment in schools and its replacement with alternatives such as 3D models,…
