Learning Objectives

At the end of this simulation, you will be able to:

Explain the typical structure of a nerve and its significance in the peripheral nervous system.
Organize the 12 cranial nerves based on their names, numerical designations, points of origin, and types, and provide a brief overview of their functions.
Categorize spinal nerves according to their respective regions, describe the formation of nerve branches (rami), and identify the four major nerve plexuses.

How do virtual labs work?

Enhance students' involvement in science by immersing them in interactive learning scenarios. Create simulations for experiments, provide hands-on training in laboratory techniques, and convey theoretical concepts through captivating visual experiences to improve their overall long-term learning outcomes.

Access over 300 web-based simulations that are compatible with laptops, Chromebooks, tablets, and iPads, eliminating the need for software installation.
Incorporate a teacher dashboard for automated grading and monitoring of student progress.
Utilize embedded quizzes to assist students in mastering scientific content.
Comprehensive repository of educational materials, including learning resources, lab reports, videos, theory pages, graphics, and more.
