Laboratory Manual
Kent Van De Graaff has authored a comprehensive laboratory manual specifically
designed to accompany Human Anatomy, 6th edition. This laboratory
manual emphasizes learning anatomical structures through visual observation,
palpation, and knowledge of the functional relationship of one body system to
another. It focuses primarily on the human organism, but also contains cat dissections
and selected organ dissections. Closely integrated with the Human Anatomy
text, the companion lab manual utilizes a well-rounded pedagogical system
that helps students organize the background information and materials needed
to complete each lab exercise. Coloring and labeling activities placed throughout
the chapters reinforce recognition of anatomical structures, and laboratory
reports at the end of each chapter encourage students to synthesize concepts
covered in both lab and lecture.
Instructor's Manual for the Laboratory Manual
This online manual is housed within the Instructor Online Learning Center.
It provides answers to the lab report questions, as well as overviews on how
to present each laboratory exercise, materials lists, and additional topics
for discussion. Transparencies
This set of transparency acetates includes 200 full-color illustrations from
the text that have been chosen for their value in reinforcing lecture presentations. Visual Resource Library
Accessed through the instructor site at the Online Learning Center and also
available on CD-ROM, the Visual Resource Library contains labeled and unlabeled
versions of the illustrations and key photos from the book, as well as all tables.
You can quickly preview images and incorporate them into PowerPoint or other
presentation programs to create your own multimedia presentations. You can also
remove and replace labels to suit your own preferences in terminology or level
of detail. Instructor's Manual
Accessed via the Online Learning Center, theInstructor's Manual by Jeffrey
S. Prince, M.D.and Karianne N. Prince provides instructional support in the
use of the textbook. It includes teaching strategies, discussion and demonstration
ideas for lectures, and suggestions for laboratory exercises. This manual also
provides a listing of transparencies and multimedia resources that correlate
with each text chapter and answers to the Knowledge Check, Essay, and Critical
Thinking questions that appear in the text. Test Item File
The Test Item File contains fill-in-the-blank, multiple choice, and true/false
questions specifically designed to complement each chapter of the text. Instructors
using WebCT, Blackboard, or PageOut can access the Test Item File online. MicroTest

The test generator contains the complete test item file on CD-ROM. MicroTest
requires no programming experience and is designed to work on both Windows and
Macintosh platforms. PageOut
PageOut is McGraw-Hill's exclusive tool for creating your own website for your
A & P course. It requires no knowledge of coding. Simply type your course
information into the templates provided. PageOut is hosted by McGraw-Hill. In addition to the materials specifically designed to accompany Human Anatomy,
McGraw-Hill offers the following supplemental resources to enrich the study
and instruction of anatomy and physiology. Regional Human Anatomy: A Laboratory Workbook for Use With Models and
Prosections by Frederick E. Grine, State University of New York--Stony Brook.
Organized with a regional approach to human anatomy, this workbook utilizes
coloring and labeling activities to simplify the learning of anatomy. Brief
text descriptions of key anatomical structures are grouped with detailed illustrations
that can be colored and labeled to reinforce the material presented. Critical
thinking questions encourage students to think about how anatomical structures
work together, and boxed clinical insights highlight facts of interest to students
pursuing health-related professions. Anatomy and Physiology Laboratory Manual-Fetal Pig by Terry R. Martin,
Kishwaukee College. Provides excellent full-color photos of the dissected fetal
pig with corresponding labeled art. It includes World Wide Web activities for
many chapters. Web-Based Cat Dissection Review for Human Anatomy and Physiology by
