Goal

To give my Anatomy & Physiology classes the ability to learn about how bones differ between animals and humans, in a hands-on learning environment. We will budget for the bus trip, but this fund-a-project would be instrumental in helping us fund raise to meet our admission costs and program fees.

Description

Skeletons: the Museum of Osteology is located in Orlando, Florida. This first of it's kind museum houses 500 real skeletons divided between 40 exhibits. Additionally, they offer a Forensic Osteology hands-on program which is a crime lab-based activity focusing on the forensic investigation of various types of trauma to the human skull. After a basic introduction to skull osteology and lab procedures, students will break-up into teams using a variety of tools from their forensic science kit to evaluate and document key evidence to support their results. They will then defend their findings to the class.

Benefits

What better way to learn about the skeleton than to see actual samples? Visiting this museum, and participating in the hands-on forensics program, will encourage students to use problem-solving skills through teamwork and communication while focusing on anatomy and the human skeleton.
