High school students watch autopsy live via videoconference
February 13, 2009 | | Leave a Comment
Earlier this month high school students from Minnesota, Nebraska, Texas and Ohio watched an autopsy live via videoconference. 
Apparently the students shifted in their seats once in a while, and averted their eyes at times during the autopsy, but no one left or slid under the table during the videoconference! When the brain was removed from the skull, some students groaned, but they watched carefully as the doctor sliced the brain and laid it out for comparison.
It would be up to the students who watched the program to try to determine the cause of death, with the help of teaching materials provided by the Center of Science and Industry in Columbus, Ohio. COSI offers a number of educational programs, both through field trips to its location and through its videoconferencing service.
