The American Educational 7-1415 life-size heart model provides students with hands-on experience examining the anatomical structure of the human heart. The model shows the main arteries, veins, and ventricles of the heart. Veins and arteries are colored red and blue to distinguish vessels carrying oxygenated blood from those carrying deoxygenated blood. The model is made from heavy-duty plastic for durability and to ease cleaning, and is mounted a base for display. The model weighs 2 lb. and is approximately 6 x 5 x 6 inches (H x W x D, where H is height, the vertical distance from the lowest to highest point; W is width, the horizontal distance from left to right; D is depth, the horizontal distance from front to back). It comes with a key to identify parts. Anatomical models are typically used as educational aids in medical and scientific classrooms and office settings.

Science education products incorporate applied math and science principles into classroom and homeschool-based projects. Teachers in pre-K, elementary, and secondary classrooms use science education kits and products alongside science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) curriculum to demonstrate STEM concepts and real-world applications through hands-on activities. Science education projects include a broad range of activities, such as practical experiments in engineering, aeronautics, robotics, energy, chemistry, physics, biology, and geology.

American Educational Products manufactures learning materials in math, science, and reading/language arts for students in pre-kindergarten through grade 12. The company, founded in 1986, is headquartered in Fort Collins, CO.
