Anatomy & Physiology: The Laboratory Experience Vol. I

By:
Bruce Wingerd, Ph.D.

A perfect accompaniment to any anatomy and physiology textbook, this lab manual can be adopted as-is or customized to meet your specific needs. Students are invited to learn through a comprehensive selection of lab exercises, an engaging writing style, a relevant and supportive art program, and a minimum of essential narrative.

The labs can be used as-is or customized, even down to the word or illustration with writing style that involves students in their own learning process.

  • Narrative is kept to an essential level, avoiding lengthy descriptions.
  • Detailed dissection guides are included.
  • A unique step-by-step instruction in histology.
  • An interactive series of questions included in each lab exercise.
  • “Review Questions” and “Applying Your New Knowledge” segments at the end of each chapter.
Available in Digital and Interactive Format

Assign and customize your lab manual online, administer interactive assessments, and check for student understanding using in-class polling tools. This is powered by bluedoor’s partnership with Top Hat, the leading active learning platform.
