What feedback have you received from students or parents about the learning in this kit? They felt their students were engaged and able to talk about their learning
“There were some great activities and were engaged and learned what I wanted them to walk away with. I did find it a bit awkward with some of the videos pertaining to TPR as one Talk focused on infection related to syphillis. I have a nursing background so went in a different direction for this part. Some of the reproductive talks were a little too explicit for the vibe I wanted from this unit.”

Did this kit increase your students awareness of the skills needed to work in the vet industry? Absolutely, some of the students even tried harder for the next few weeks, even though they are way off where they need to worry about pre-requisites. Very cute!

What feedback have you received from students or parents about the learning in this kit? Students very engaged and talking at home to parents about what they have learnt, as well as their future aspriations.
“This kit is amazing! We loved learning about diagnostic techniques and the science involved (including a massive discussion about gaining qualifications in later schooling to become a vet), as well as the crossover to using coding to represent each animal and their symptoms. We had some robust discussions around each diagnosis.”

What feedback have you received from students or parents about the learning in this kit? Very enjoyable learning opportunity and enough challenge to make them work! Parents reported being told about it at home which is a good sign!
“In my intermediate school science GATE class our focus was on comparing anatomy. This kit offered an opportunity for my students to explore a particular animal in detail. The students loved the independent nature of the diagnostic activity and found the resources challenging but approachable. It did need me to some detailed planning and organising to identify the main steps and how to present the activity. I found it tricky to find some resources on the website as they were called one thing on the lesson plan and something else on the resources list. I could not download the lesson plan - I had to reopen it from the website each time I wanted to review it. Overall it is a clever and useful resource that worked well within my unit.”
