Microscopes
Students will use increased modes of magnification to examine characteristics of a variety of different organisms from the most basic hand lens to dissecting scopes and compound microscopes. Students will be also exposed to the parts and appropriate uses of the various types of microscopes in an interactive, hands-on activity. Students will also get to see exactly what their instructor is seeing as we incorporate our new video projection system.
