There is also the question, " Is it humane?" This question is especially pertinent now that there are comparable alternatives.Īrguably, there are online/digital programs and tools that provide an even better environment and educational experience. But there are many reasons why schools and homeschools have stopped performing the "classic" frog dissection. Some educators might disagree with me, saying that queasiness isn't an excuse for skipping a hands-on dissection lab. And then I started exploring digital options for my youngest who has a "sensitive stomach" when it comes to hard science. However, after my oldest completed an online conceptual physics lab, I realized that technology has far surpassed my expectations. Back in "my day" there was no such thing as "virtual labs," much less "virtual dissections." Like it or not, grossed out or engaged, we all had to suffer through the process (and smells, ugh!).
