Medicine L9 - Renaissance Medical Care & Vesalius

This lesson contains:

• A starter to test key terms from previous lessons.

• A change and continuity task to compare and contrast the medics and carers of this era with the Medieval era.

• A case study into Andreas Vesalius, firstly his background and then what medical drawings and learning was like before he came alone.

• Activities to note down information about his two books, his drawings and then the impact he had on medicine at the time and later.

• A detailed look at the front cover of 'On the Fabric of the Human Body' and what the different elements imply.

• A choice of two plenaries: the first is a quiz from the last few lessons and the second is an opportunity to support or oppose a quote about Vesalius's impact.
