Learning Centers

These biology CD ROM's are also available in the Learning Centers.

Staff members are available to help students use hardware and software and to help new users become familiar with using computers. All MCC students, both full- and part-time, may use the ELC by showing a valid MCC photo ID card. Student must sign in and out when they use these facilities.

Ask at the desk for the Biology Department CD-ROMs. Please note that there is currently only one copy of each CD-ROM available. The CD-ROMs have graphics, animation, sound, anatomy modules, simulations of physiological processes, and interactive quizzes.
