Featured Activity Kit: Human Ear Model

Have you heard about the exciting new activity kit at OISE Library? The Human Ear Model is a great way to introduce your students to the structures of the human body and the study of Audiology.  The model offers students the chance to explore the inner structure of the ear in a hands-on, tactile way, while also providing an informative card that explains the different sections of the ear that students are seeing. The ear canal and internal workings of the ear are attached to a model of the outer ear, and the connections between what is on the outside and the inside are made clear. Your students will be all ears for this informative activity kit!

This model would be a helpful addition to lessons about the senses and how they work, or a tool for older students studying biology. This kit is one of several here at OISE Library that explores the inner workings of the human body, some of which have been featured in past activity kit posts.

This activity kit is now on display on the ground floor of OISE Library next to the reference desk and our new student seating. There are also a variety of materials available on the human ear through the UTL catalogue.
