Health Professionals:

“As a health care professional, I am very impressed with the Health Beats Series by Core Learning. I reviewed all of the volumes and feel they would be very useful in the health care setting to reinforce information provided to children and their families on anatomy and physiology or specific ailments.

The Health Beats Series offers fun learning objective on the young person’s level on a variety of topics including anatomy and physiology, emotional health, and disease states. The graphics are very well done and learning objectives are reinforced with fun games. I liked that the program is designed for the child to read the information themselves so the learning would not be passive, but interactive. The software was easy to use and loaded effortlessly on both MAC and PC.

The volume Illnesses and Injuries was my favorite. The topics were very well explained in a logical sequence. I particularly liked the diabetes section, which takes the learner through the pathophysiology of diabetes and the medical and diet treatment. Explanations of the role of insulin and the use of glucose in the body were simple and accompanied by wonderful graphics.

My 11 year old daughter reviewed the programs as well and she says The Body was a really fun and interesting way to learn about stuff inside your body like your blood, brain, digestive system. I liked the games where you matched the words to the pictures. Emotional Health was very helpful in talking about ways to handle stress, moving, new schools, and a lot more. I liked the ‘moving game’.”

Overall, I feel the Health Beats Series is a wonderful asset for young people to learn about general physical and emotional health topics in a fun and age-appropriate manner. I feel this series could be a resource for families in the classroom, physician’s waiting room, or in-patient setting. I highly recommend the Health Beats to health care professionals.”
