Video of the Anatomy of Clay Learning System

Anatomy in Clay® is a program that increases knowledge of human anatomy by using a hands-on approach to learning in which students build anatomical features on to a model (or Maniken®). This approach allows students to build anatomical features from the inside out on scale-model skeletons that gives them a three-dimensional perspective of the human body. This increased perspective, along with the interactive, kinesthetic act of building with clay, increases student understanding and retention of human anatomy.
