Features
Shared Resources
Access 22,000+ images for biomedical, life science and medical education. Our community contributes teaching images, including virtual slides, to create a shared repository of resources covering a range of disciplines.
Zoom (40X-100X) and pan viewing
View all images at higher magnification. Navigate virtual slides just as you would under the microscope, zooming in/out up to 40x-100x and panning across the tissue section.
Share Knowledge
Highlight features on images to draw attention to while teaching or create a set of in context notes about what was covered by your teacher in class. Then share your annotation layers with others.
Ask Questions
Ask feature identification questions where students manipulate images interactively (zoom/pan) as they answer. Students receive immediate feedback, while teachers gain insight into understanding and misconceptions.
Collections
Organise the images and layers you use into folders for personal reference or for use as part of a course. Share your Collection with others to easily give them access to all the images they need.
LMS Integration
Connect Slice to your learning management system to streamline student registration.
Engaging Group Activities
Invite students to work together on a shared layer and evaluate their annotations.
Export Learner Activity
Rich learners interaction data, including posts, comments, user generated content and completion data are all available for export by course administrators so you can analyse data in your favourite tools.
Stream Data to an LRS via XAPI
OpenLearning supports XAPI so that activity completion data can be streamed into a Learning Record Store for further analysis by your team.
Immersive Presentations
Remove distractions and focus on explaining the features of an image to students.
