Students in Questar III’s Careers in Healthcare program created t-shirts depicting human anatomy. The students learned where organs are located within the body and wore their shirts at their Honor Roll presentation for students in other programs to learn from, as well.
Careers in Healthcare teacher Brian Gagne has his students complete this project every year.
“This project gives students a visual representation of human anatomy and physiology,” said Gagne. “They learn more from hands-on activities and they have fun doing it.”
Careers in Healthcare is open to high school seniors interested in learning about a variety of high demand health and emergency medical careers before entering college. Utilizing classroom instruction, professional speakers and real-life experiences at local health-related facilities, students establish a solid foundation for pursuing a career in the fast-growing field of health care. Students become certified as American Heart Association BLS/CPR instructors and may earn credit in a related college course.
