According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the veterinary field is expected to grow by 18% between now and 2028. This is much higher than the averages of other professions. There is a critical need for research veterinarians as well as in other fields of animal science. Veterinary medicine is changing. But one thing remains the same: from young kids to high school teens, there's a lot of interest in becoming a veterinarian, assistant, zookeeper, or wildlife conservationist. From cute dolphins to scruffy wolves to coyotes, leopards, and scorpions... animals really capture the hearts of learners all over the world. This class is not "fluff." This class is an in-depth look at veterinary medicine, filled to the brim with not only how vet medicine works, but why certain topics are important. The older version (13 years+) of this class was the very first of its kind on Outschool. With the live class often sold out, let me share why you should take the asynchronous class! Examples of interactive portions of class: grid logic problems similar to escape rooms, coded answer leave-class tickets similar to escape rooms, quizzes, breakout rooms (if there are enough students) for students to discuss ethical or logical deduction problems, or group work on printable provided to students prior to class in the classroom.

Learning Goals
Prior to each class, I will list the individual learning outcomes in the classroom for the day.
Goals from each class will be:
- Students will be able to explain to a peer an applicable skill or information set used in a veterinary setting
- Students will understand the importance of team work in the veterinary setting
Other Details
Parental Guidance
There is no inappropriate content; however, this course is a veterinary medicine course. Some lectures may have video footage of needles (IV catheters) or surgeries present. Some courses may have photos of organs included. Anesthesia will be discussed in some lessons.
Supply List
Most students take notes; a notebook and pen would be helpful. There may be some printables included to help students understand and retain the material. These materials are created by myself specifically for your child in this class.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
