You can find Learning Commons information, book recommendations and so much more on JCTC's social media.
The Learning Commons has some DVDs at the Downtown and Southwest locations, however, your best bet for finding video resources on Anatomy and Physiology would be to use one of our streaming video databases: Films on Demand or Academic Video Online. Both Films on Demand or Academic Video Online will require you to login with your JCTC username and password. To find DVDs and video recordings that the library owns, you'll need to use Library Search.
Think about what you want before you search. Search broadly for anatomy, or more narrowly for topics like circulatory system. Use the drop down of 'All items' and select video.
To find videos related to Anatomy and Physiology on Films on Demand, use the subject guide to navigate to the Anatomy and Physiology videos. Select Biology from the list of available subjects.
Use the dropdown menu to select, Human Anatomy and Physiology to find applicable topics.
Films on Demand is a comprehensive, curriculum-focused video streaming database, which includes full transcripts, closed captioning, and formatted citations. Also included are documentaries from all major producers, including PBS, National Geographic, A&E, American Museum of Natural History, HBO, and news from all major outlets like CBS, NBC, and BBC.
What you need to know:This database offers informative videos for research in all academic subjects. Students in technical programs may find this database pertinent for its videos on carpentry, auto tech, electronics, HVAC, welding, hands-on repair, and graphic modeling.
To find streaming videos on Academic Video Online, use the search box to find videos that relate to your course material or research.
When you click within the search box it will expand and then you will see text that says "within" followed by a dropdown box. Do not switch the dropdown; stay within the Current Channel to make sure that the video results are accessible as a JCTC student.
