Student Version: The multimedia CD-ROM was developed to assist students in obtaining a basic knowledge of reproductive physiology in farm species. Students are given an outline of lecture notes that follow the instructor’s presentation. Lecture outlines are provided in HTML and PowerPoint formats for easy use by the students. Outlines include all figures, pictures, illustrations and tables given in the instructor presentations. The laboratory slide section provides the students with high quality images of reproductive anatomy, histology, semen collection, embryo development, embryo transfer, ultrasonography, parturition, methods of estrus synchronization, biotechnology in reproductive management. All slides are comprehensively labeled to assist students in self-learning. Also included are gross anatomy self-tests of each farm species, in Microsoft PowerPoint format, to allow the student to study the anatomical structures in the male and female at their own pace. All videos are voiced to aid the student in learning gross anatomy, heat detection, AI, ovulation, egg transport, dystoica, palpation, ultrasonography, fetal sexing, semen collection, semen processing, semen freezing and molecular techniques used in animal biotechnology.
Instructor Version: The instructor version of the CD contains animated text and illustrations that were developed for instruction of undergraduates. Format is user friendly and easy for students to follow with the outline notes provided in their CD. Lectures are made in Microsoft PowerPoint and can be altered to fit each individuals teaching style. Lectures are placed in chapters that follow a logical order to conform to any undergraduate text in reproductive physiology of farm animals. Dr. Geisert has taught reproductive physiology to undergraduates for over 15 years. The format, text, illustrations and pictures have been well received by undergraduates in the course. CD-ROM has been used to teach the entire lecture in the classroom for the past two years, allowing many changes and updates to improve the use of the CD.
