App Description

Take learning into your own hands! Use virtual tools to explore cells under a microscope. It’s a new way to learn and understand science.

Manipulate four parts of a compound light microscope to bring various human tissue samples into clear view. Learn how to adjust the lens, diaphragm, course focus knob, and fine focus knob to get just the right amount of magnification, focus, and light for each sample.

• Operate and adjust a compound microscope to examine cells of human tissue.
• Identify the parts of a compound microscope.
• Find out how the lens, diaphragm, course focus knob, and fine focus knob function on a microscope.
• Get feedback to help you choose the right parts to adjust for the clearest images possible.

App features:
• Take charge! Explore cell samples using interactive tools.
• Receive helpful feedback to guide you through the activity.
• Demonstrate what you learn about microscopes by taking a short quiz.
• Want more? Check out the AC library in the App Store.
