I’ve just been told me about a human anatomy visualisation tool called Visible Body which I have downloaded and had a play with. It features a 3D, interactive human anatomy model. You need Internet Explorer to run it. The video here gives a brief overview:

In Touch Care in Sheffield use 3D resources which they purchased from Amazing Interactives as part of their LIG2 bid (Learning Innovation Grant) and have found them to be extremely effective teaching aids for their Health & Social Care, Oral Health and Childcare courses. Jo North, the Executive Director of In Touch Care, prepared a podcast for us on the developments made through strategic planning, excellent technical support in house, investment in 3D interactive aids, simulators and staff development in the use of these tools, two parts of which you can view in the video section of our social networking site mrscyhspace. The videos are not edited in a whizzy way yet but are still useful as Jo North sets out very clearly each stage of her organisation’s e learning journey and describes how the 3D and other tools have been used effectively.

Some professionally made videos about In Touch Care can be viewed on their website.
