On the first day of the semester, it is not very long before one of my students stops me in my overview of the syllabus and asks, "When will we be dissecting?" Dissection day is definitely considered the highlight of the course and something my students look forward. We have used the Carolina sheep hearts before and my students loved them. With 12 hearts, we can perform 4 to 6 dissections over the course of the school year. In addition, the hearts can be used-post dissection for anatomical identification questions on a summative assessment (test). The donations to this project will help to improve my students' understanding of the heart by bringing the material to life. In addition, it will provide a once-in-a-lifetime hands-on experience. The heart model will be a valuable tool to both myself and my students. Currently, we do not have any models in the classroom and must rely on the text and internet resources. With the model, it will provide a hands-on tool that students can observe and analyze. Also, students will be able to use this tool to study and assess their ability to identify the various parts of the heart. Many of my students have mentioned they would like to pursue careers in the medical field and by having access to these tools now will give them an advantage at the next step in their educational journey.
