Exploring Biology Lessons Using A Digital Microscope

Help me give my students to have an access to digital microscope in my biology class so that they will be able to visualize what to look for when they do the actual laboratory activity.

My Project

Digital microscope used in the classroom can be fun and exciting in Honors Biology classes. Students will be able to visualize what the lesson looks like and when they do the actual laboratory activities they would be able to explore and engage themselves in their tasks.

Lecture and discussion about the concepts are not enough but the students need to see not only the physical structure but the inner part of a sample or particular specimen as well.

Digital microscopes are very essential in the teaching and learning process. This will be a great help not only to regular students but those students with accommodations in class.
