Description

• There has been a longstanding tradition to use real human skeletons as educational aids in classrooms {2}.
• The interactive nature of hands-on learning often results in the degradation of these skeletal specimens, and repairs are needed to bring them back to being fully functional.
• Drawing techniques from one of the few guides to restoring educational classroom skeletons {1} and museum approaches {2, 3, 5}, we are able to find a method that works for three human skeletons at Dakota State University.
