With the advent of computers virtual dissection was recognized as a plausible option for the replacement of hands-on dissection. Based on survey data collected from 489 Czech Biology teachers it was revealed that teachers value positively both variants of dissection, even more, differences are small or even negligible. Differences on motivation scale toward both variants are small or negligible too. From the answers based on motivation scale, we can construct a ghost teacher as someone who recognizes both alternatives of dissections as interesting, and even pleasant and fun activities. However, dissection should be performed as mostly as self-regulated activities with perceived benefits for the students as the dominant incentive, while not recognizing activity as important. The differences exist both between the acceptability of different kind of organisms for hands-on and virtual dissection, and in the actual school practice. In the long term perspective is cohabitation of both variants most probable.
