I really like this product as a science teacher and the students did too.

My Take

I really like it a lot. It allows the student to see these structures visually and get a better understanding of what they really look like. It also helped them see how each thing works on an individual level as well as a larger scale and how the organisms work together to make the body function as a whole. It also allowed students that wanted to learn more and have a more advanced opportunity to learn do so. It gave the students an opportunity to work at their own pace and to go as deep as they would like into the material they were learning.

How I Use It

I had my students use it to identify different cell structures and understand the function of each structure. I also had a little worksheet they had to fill out with this as they went along and then they got to check their work with a partner and see if they were correct.

An Interactive, engaging tour of the cell that makes your students love to learn about cells.

I have used this app with my classes for the past 2 years and I love it. The app addresses all learning styles through a variety of means. Visual learners can see the details of cell organelles and are able to read the information at their own pace, the kinesthetic learners have the interactive, hands-on experience that they need and the auditory learners are benefited with videos that they can watch and listen to at any time. Overall, I love this app for my students. It is visually very beautiful with lots of color pictures and images that enhance the learning experience. The app is thorough and in depth with the details about cells and cell structure but also pulls in other topics like types of cells, mitosis and DNA that connect student learning. The students are awed by the app and often spend more time at this station than intended because they are completely engaged in their own learning.
