Hear from our customers

Body Interact has helped our Health Science students integrate hands-on activities by using the information they learned in class to go through the different simulations. This is such a great tool for high school students who are not old enough to get into medical facilities or to supplement clinical labs because of HIPPA or COVID precautions. It is great to see the students solve the cases and feel proud of themselves for solving a potential real-life scenario.

Body Interact is going great for my students. I like that I can track their learning profiles and see their growth individually.
My students love having the experience and feeling like they are working with patients.
The game-like process appeals to their high school brains and reinforces topics we have learned in class in a fun and creative way.

I've been using it with many of our students in class, and with many students from the Philadelphia area during our numerous outreach events. It has become integral to our arsenal of educational tools! We look forward to future patient scenarios.

Mashaal Syed, MSAdjunct ProfessorEsperanza College of Eastern University

In the beginning, we would ask the patient questions, call for a different unit and then based on that, we would act. But when we started to get better and go up to higher difficulty levels, we would read the description and be like “okay, there’s 3 options that this can be”. So we went from “I have no idea what I’m doing” to “This is what it could be” and it felt a lot better!

Body Interact is a good program to allow students to have an opportunity to interact with sample patients and learn how to put their book knowledge to use when considering actual scenarios.

Denise OlsenMedical Science Teacher & Health Careers Academy Coordinator Modesto City Schools

Body Interact is an amazing program that allowed me to play the role of a physician, without the risk of actually hurting a patient. Despite it being a simulation, it doesn't lack the feeling of panic and urgency that comes from a real emergency situation. I personally want to become a pediatrician, and dealing with patients who come in with different backgrounds and medical history is something that I will need to get accustomed to. Body Interact was perfect for that, I felt as if I really was a physician diagnosing my patient through critical thinking and prior knowledge.
