Mr. Anderson, our high school anatomy teacher, used Chromebooks and Google Slides for students to teach and understand the flow of blood through the heart. The simplistic, but elegant presentation tools allowed for students to use drawing tools, shapes, and text boxes found in Google Slides to annotate images of the heart. As Mr. Anderson states, "The tool (Google Slides) made it more visual to see the steps that occurred."

Impact On Students:
Creativity: Understanding the scope and sequence of the flow of blood through the heart doesn't need to be boring. Students were given freedom to show this sequence with whatever images or annotations they desired.
Critical Thinking: Students needed to have enough words, but not too many on each slide to establish the needed information. Students were also required to think through the entire process so that the flow of blood through the heart could be understood by people outside of the classroom.
