All About Animals
Educational website for primary and secondary school pupils and teachers. Information and curriculum-linked lesson plans on animal issues, plus useful resources, recommended reading and website links. You can also book a talk at your school.
Contains thousands of entries of alternatives to the harming or killing of animals for many levels of education.
Our network of trained, volunteer school speakers is available to give talks or run workshops on a range of topics, such as animal rights, vegetarianism or animal experiments. We also provide a wide range of materials suitable for teachers and pupils studying subjects such as English, Citizenship, PSHE, RE, Food Technology, Media Studies and General Studies at KS3 and 4 and Sixth Form. Resources include videos and DVDs, Student Activities (lesson plans and worksheets), student factsheets and information booklets, campaign leaflets and posters. Most of these are free to teachers.
On this web site you will find a number of interactive ethical dilemmas raising questions about our treatment of animals. Explore the dilemmas and find out how different ethical views influence your own behaviour. An interactive learning tool for University and professional training, primarily veterinary students.
We work to foster an awareness of and a respect for animals used in education. We strive to eliminate the use of animals in education and we are dedicated to assisting educators and students to find the most effective non-animal methods to teach and study science. Animalearn has created The Science Bank, our lending program of new and innovative life science software and educational products that enable educators and students to learn anatomy, physiology, and psychology lessons without harming animals, themselves, or the Earth.
We offer not lesson plans but educational resources that allow you to build your own lesson activities. These are grouped by classroom subject (e.g. English). Our background resources are grouped by topic (e.g. Fox Hunting).
The Captive Animals' Protection Trust (CAPT) works to prevent cruelty and to promote respect for animals through education. We co-ordinate a network of people who give talks to schools and other groups, as well as producing educational materials for teachers, students and the general public.
CIWF produces a range of educational resources, which are available either free or competitively priced. These include videos, teaching activities and packs, information booklets, web-based software and more. Most can be downloaded from their Web site without charge.
DUAR exists to raise awareness of animal rights and welfare issues, including factory farming, vivisection, hunting and the entertainment industry. We aim to provide a forum for discussion, education and campaigning around these issues.
eurca actively promotes the use of alternatives to using animals in higher education (HE). We aim to provide a mechanism for effective dissemination of information about alternatives to using animals in HE.
Downloadable version of a high quality summary of alternatives to harmful animal use in biomedical education, with some European educational animal use figures. In education, it is important that students are not put in a position in which they are forced to participate in animal experiments or to use dead animals, killed especially for such purposes. Continued use of animal experiments to demonstrate known facts or teach skills which can be taught using nonanimal methods evidences only a lack of sensitivity towards students who still maintain respect for life. In countries where animal testing in education is reduced to close to zero, there is no evidence that the students who are being trained are less capable or qualified.
There is a vast array of learning tools and approaches to veterinary education, many tried and true, many innovative and with potential. Such new methods have come about partly from an increasing demand from both students and teachers to avoid methods of teaching and training that harm animals. The aim is to create the best quality education, ideally supported by validation of the efficacy of particular educational tools and approaches, while ensuring that animals are not used harmfully and that respect for animal life is engendered within the student.
We aim for a high quality, fully humane education in biological science, veterinary and human medicine. We support progressive science teaching and the replacement of animal experiments by working with teachers to introduce alternatives, and with students to support freedom of conscience.
The aim of our Education Programme is to provide teachers with stimulating educational resources that will form the basis for successful lessons. Many of these resources can be used to generate interesting lessons even when it is not the main aim of the lesson plan to address issues of cruelty to animals. Our educational resources are not biased, we try to consider alternative views to avoid indoctrination, and we work very hard to ensure the resources are factually correct.
Hundreds of thousands of animals are needlessly experimented on, killed and dissected each year in schools and universities worldwide.
Are you at University? Want to find out how to find out what they're up to regarding animal experiments, request official information and start a campaign? It's easier than you think, and this guide will show you how!
Students for Ethical Science (SES) is a society of Open University (OU) students, former students and staff which aims to persuade the OU, by peaceful and legal means, to end its harmful use of animals in research and teaching, and replace it with academically equivalent or superior animal-free alternatives.
Downloadable version of an academic publication with 350 citations presenting the evidence in favor of humane alternatives to harmful animal use in biomedical education.
Campaign to replace animal experiments at Sussex University. We campaign peacefully over issues that we see as highly important for the education of students, national health and animal welfare. We believe, when looking at the factual evidence, animal experimentation is a hugely unreliable method of scientific examination that is irrelevant to the study of human disease and health problems. Students have a right to conduct their studies without the use of animals in research and should not be persecuted or lose marks for doing so.
VERO is a University-based group established to oppose the University's construction of a new animal research laboratory, and to campaign instead for a more ethically responsible approach to biomedial research at Oxford. Founded in the summer of 2006, it unites academic and administrative staff, students and graduates in a broad range of disciplines.
All are welcome to join the society - non-vegetarians, vegetarians and vegans. If you are interested in the issues surrounding the animal industry then we would love to have you as part of the society
