What’s It Like? Arloon Anatomy | The Human Body is one of a growing list of interactive 3D human anatomy tools. This app’s simulations are paired with informational slides that walk you through the body as they describe how it works. Users can manipulate and learn the parts of the respiratory, circulatory, digestive, excretory, nervous, skeletal, muscular, and reproductive systems. Arloon has also included an augmented-reality component that uses built-in device cameras to map body images onto students’ actual world.
Price: $2
Grades: 5-12
Pros: Kids are given a guided tour through the systems of the body with engaging opportunities to manipulate 3-D images.
Cons: More interactive features would help: it’s missing teacher tracking, creation opportunities, and sharing capabilities.
Bottom line: An interactive 3-D simulation that lets kids dive into the human body and learn about how it works along the way.
