The Body of Evidence: COSI’s In Depth: Autopsy Videoconference Program

by: Gail Wheatley and Jen Snively

The Center of Science and Industry’s (COSI) Electron Education program, In Depth: Autopsy, allows students to see and participate in an autopsy as much as possible, given the limits of videoconference technologies. The program puts anatomy, physiology, and pathology lessons in a context where they are used extensively. Science-process skills, including observation, recordkeeping, measurement, collecting and interpreting data, and drawing conclusions and defending them with data are emphasized throughout the program.
