The site says it will soon have a CD ROM available for classroom use. Check back to find when it will be available. The animations provide a visual for processes that can be difficult for students to imagine. These animations are not interactive, though, and move quickly. Watch for a while, explaining the demonstration. The site carries banner ads and a few in the contents bar.

Description:

Human Anatomy Online shares information about ten body systems in an interactive format. Study a system, view animations and learn. From the website: "Welcome to inner exploration of Human Anatomy. Each topic has animations, 100´s of graphics and thousands of descriptive links. Study the anatomy of the human body. It´s fun, interactive and an ideal reference site for students or those who just want to know more about the medical descriptions used by doctors and nurses."

Possible uses:

Students can visit any of the systems to learn more or study. Teachers can use this as a teaching tool. Project the site and use the illustrations, information and animations to enhance human biology curriculum. Students can explore the site in class, in pairs, to share and discuss what they see and learn.
