If we must dissect at all, we should dissect animals that were already dead.
~ Wendy, Age 13 ~
That doesn't make sense, the only we can learn about them is through dissection.
~ Eva, Age 12 ~
Virtual dissections are specifically made for being like the real thing. They give you the same knowledge without an actual dead animal being cut open.
~ Paige, Age 12 ~
How did DaVinci learn about the human body? By real dissection. He didn't just hop online and dissect a fake corpse.
~ Eva, Age 12 ~
So what?
~ Ben, Age 11 ~
I think I would feel better if they weren't killed on purpose.
~ Derek, Age 12 ~
That was a long time ago.
~ Bridget, Age 11 ~
I think we should only dissect animals that weren't killed for that purpose.
~ Pete, Age 12 ~
Well, how else would they get the dead animals?
~ Hannah, Age 13 ~
Children should be given an alternative.
~ Bridget, Age 11 ~
Definitely an alternative! Otherwise, the sensitive one might puke.
~ Hannah. C, Age 12 ~
I think dissections are wrong, and virtual dissections could suffice.
~ Ayla, Age 13 ~
Well, if they are bred for it, that's okay. They wouldn't have any chance to live another life.
~ Amanda, Age 13 ~
So true, everyone needs to just deal with the fact that everyone dies. It's not like the frogs we save by doing virtual dissections aren't going to die anyway.
~ Eva, Age 12 ~
You should just deal with it.
~ Chris, Age 12 ~
Yah, You should move on! Come deal with it.
~ Hannah, Age 13 ~
Not everyone can handle the fact that you are cutting open a dead frog.
~ Paige, Age 12 ~
You don't know until yout try it.
~ Chris, Age 12 ~
If you think about it, how do we learn if we don't try it?
~ Ben, Age 11 ~
Well, it only teaches you if you want to be a doctor.
~ Bridget, Age 11 ~
No, that's not true. If you want to be a doctor, you should dissect dead humans. Learning abour our world should be for all.
~ Ben, Age 11 ~
Well, some people can't handle it.
~ Bridget, Age 11 ~
I think that we should, but students should always be given the chance to try real.
~ Amanda, Age 13 ~
This would be animal abuse!
~ Emily, Age 12 ~
Some people may have emotional breakdowns.
~ Bridget, Age 11 ~
Why? People have heard of people dying forever, no breakdowns there...
~ Ben, Age 11 ~
Go virtual!
~ Bridget, Age 11 ~
Virtual isn't the same thing as the real thing. You wouldn't get the same experience.
~ Dan, Age 11 ~
Yes, I so agree. Everyone needs to toughen up.
~ Eva, Age 12 ~
You can learn the same thing with virtual dissections without killing.
~ Bridget, Age 11 ~
The entire point of virtual dissection is so you do get the same experience without being grossed out or killing inncoent froggies.
~ Hannah, C, Age 12 ~
What puts an animal in front of a human?
~ Ben, Age 11 ~
You don't know if the animal dies on its own or not.
~ Bridget, Age 11 ~
So what?
~ Ben, Age 11 ~
It is a great way to learn about the body, but they could go the virtual way.
~ Dan, Age 11 ~
It's not worth killing frogs when you could do it on a computer.
~ Hannah. C, Age 12 ~
That's expensive and a waste of time. Humans are so dependent on computers, it is not even funny.
~ Ben, Age 11 ~
It isn't that expensive, teachers alraedy have the computers.
~ Bridget, Age 11 ~
Dissection is a good learning process, but it is horrible. They freeze the animal.Sometimes you have to kill the animals on the spot.
~ Tori, Age 13 ~
