Being able to have tools like this for students to touch and feel what a torn ACL or ATF would feel like – is it spongy? Is there end-feel? – is crucial. Otherwise, unfortunately, you’re looking for live models of individuals that are hurt and hoping they’re in your class so you can ask if they mind whether you use them as an example. With this, students can practice their skills but also get that feedback – that ‘oh, I see what you mean now.’ They can see the description, hear the description, but to feel it is something else entirely.
