This video-based interactive activity gives users a close-up and fascinating view of the anatomy of a real cow eye as it is dissected by a teenage narrator. You'll get a view of the cornea, watch light refract through the extracted lens, see the retina from the inside, and more. The Flash movies are divided into 12 segments which may be stopped/started interactively. Each segment contains text information with vocabulary definitions in hover-over format. The resource also provides a diagram of the eye and detailed illustrations of how the eye refracts light and sends messages to the optic nerve.
PBS Learning Media is a growing collection of 10,000+ free educational resources compiled by researchers and experienced teachers to promote the use of digital resources in the classroom. Please note that this resource requires Flash.
