Review for:Video: Heart and circulatory system â How they workIf you used this resource in your own classroom, please add your review. posted: on June 15, 2008 at 10:41PM
My rating of this resource: ****
My experience using this resource: The human circulatory system
Topic I was teaching: The structure and function of the heart
My learning goal for which this resource was used: to have students understand the "2 pumps in 1" model of the heart
Course Level: A.P., Honors or Advanced, Intro or Regular
How I/my students used the resource: This video is shown before and after a review of the heart's structure and function. The second review allows students to check their notes for accuracy and completeness.
Value Added: Provides visualization or animation, Increases student engagement and motivation, independent student review
Strengths: great video! comprehensive! easy to use! kids don't get overwhelmed with vocabulary!I hope this site lives for a long time!
Weaknesses: Ugh! Be still my beating heart! Even the Mayo Clinic promotes the misconception that blood is blue until it hits air/oxygen!! |
