This comprehensive,
interactive CD-ROM provides the student with the ability to perform
a variety of lab simulations on the computer. Includes background
information on the workings of a microscope as well as images, text
illustrations, video clips and animation to familiarize the student
with basic microtechnique concepts. Students even perform experiments
in a virtual lab environment using the program's animated equipment.
They learn exciting microtechniques, including Measurement, Use of
a Counting Cell, Wet Mount Preparation, Hanging Drop Preparation,
Rheinburg Illumination, Dark Field Illumination, and Polarization.
Requirements: Can be used with either Window or Mac. Windows 95 or
higher. Power Mac 7.5 or higher. 16 MB RAM.

| Exploring
with a Microscope Lab Investigation Kit - Learn to use the
microscope while discovering the microworld around us. |
Take a look at
the world as you've never seen it before! Students explore the microworld
of plants, animals and microbes using microscope slides that they
safely prepare themselves using the set of stains which is included.
They also construct their own water drop microscope to view a variety
of microlife forms which come to life from a special dry pond mix.
The class also learns about new and exciting microscope-imaging techniques
- such as dark field illumination and polarizing light to obtain a
unique view of the "World of Little".
Class size 40 students.
