Interactive Exams

• The interactive exams are designed to work best with "Internet Explorer." If you are using a browser other than Internet Explorer you may not be able to get the scores and correct answers after you hit the exam's submit button.  The interactive exam's link requires the use of the PASSWORD found at the top of the introduction page of the workbook. Also instructions are given as to how to locate the USER-ID. The interactive exams are designed to test the general knowledge and understanding of materials presented in the workbook. By clicking on the submit button at the end of the exam, the graded exam is returned to your computer. We do not collect any information from these exams and no information other than the returned exam is sent to your computer. Interactive exams may be changed/updated at any time. We make no claim as to the suitability of these exams for your class or grade.

Videos

• A variety of videos are included in the chapter links. Videos may be those produced by Link Publishing, or they may be externally-linked internet videos found on YouTube or other sites. We try to keep the video links current but externally-linked videos frequently change so you may encounter an occasional "broken-link."  Videos are screened for authoritative content and include dissections, microscopic slide observations, and other relevant presentations.

Links

• In addition to the web links listed with the individual chapters, this section lists some specific links to our favorite Anatomy and Physiology and Biological Sciences Sites.
