Nan Jiang; Zhongling Jiang; Yufeng Huang; Mingju Sun; Xuejing Sun; Yanjun Huan; Fangzheng Li – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2024
Veterinary anatomy plays a crucial role in the curriculum for veterinary medicine and surgery. The integration of modern information technology in veterinary education can greatly benefit from innovative tools such as augmented reality (AR) applications. The aim of this study was to develop an accurate and interactive three-dimensional (3D)…

Yohannan, Doris George; Oommen, Aswathy Maria; Amogh, Bhaskaran Jayaprasad; Raju, Nithin Kadakampallil; Suresh, Rakesh Omana; Nair, Santhanu Jagannath – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2022
Spatial understanding of complex anatomical concepts is often a challenge for learners, as well as for educators. It is even more challenging for students with low mental spatial abilities. There are many options to teach spatial relationships, ranging from simple models to high-end three-dimensional (3D) virtual reality tools. Using a randomized…

Tawfik, Beshoy; Dancis, Sam; Dueñas, Angelique – International Journal of Designs for Learning, 2022
Increasing and maintaining student engagement within anatomy education at a pre-collegiate level is a challenge that educators continue to encounter. Finding an appropriate level of difficulty that prepares students for the rigor of undergraduate anatomy education while balancing the need to inspire student interest in STEM-related fields of study…

Bains, Mona; Kaliski, Debora Z.; Goei, Kathleen A. – Advances in Physiology Education, 2022
Problem-based learning (PBL) offers advantages for teaching anatomy and physiology for physical therapy students as clinical cases provide a scaffold for a comprehensive review of body systems. Although the utilization of interactive anatomy software greatly contributes to an active learning environment and efficient use of time, simply providing…

Rosario, Martín G. – Journal of Learning and Teaching in Digital Age, 2021
Conventional teaching methods, such as 2-dimensional PowerPoint presentations, are among the most common anatomy teaching tools. However, these methods do not allow depth perception of anatomical structures. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to report the incorporation and student's perception of a 3D anatomy app to an Occupational Therapy…

Ben Awadh, Abdullah; Clark, Jill; Clowry, Gavin; Keenan, Iain D. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2022
While integrated delivery of anatomy and radiology can support undergraduate anatomical education, the interpretation of complex three-dimensional spatial relationships in cross-sectional and radiological images is likely to be demanding for novices. Due to the value of technology-enhanced and multimodal strategies, it was hypothesized that…

Abu Bakar, Yasrul Izad; Hassan, Asma'; Yusoff, Muhamad Saiful Bahri; Kasim, Fazlina; Abdul Manan @ Sulong, Husnaida; Hadie, Siti Nurma Hanim – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2022
To become skilled physicians, medical students must master surface anatomy. However, the study of surface anatomy is less emphasized in medical and allied health science curricula, and the time devoted to direct engagement with the human body is limited. This scoping review was designed to answer one research question: "What are the elements…

Reynolds, Amberly; Goodwin, Michael; O'Loughlin, Valerie Dean – Advances in Physiology Education, 2022
There is a widely variable breadth of coverage of skeletal muscle content across both undergraduate human anatomy and undergraduate anatomy and physiology (A&P) courses. In response to the need for a more global understanding of the content taught in undergraduate anatomy courses, we developed an online survey (administered through Qualtrics)…

Griffith, MacKenzie; Ferrigno, Christopher; Wilson, Adam B. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2023
Anatomy-related departments have access to comparative research productivity data (e.g., Blue Ridge Institute for Medical Research), yet no datasets exist for comparing departments' general practices pertinent to education-focused faculty. Practice trends in anatomy-related departments across U.S. medical schools were explored by surveying…

Cale, Andrew S.; Byram, Jessica N.; Organ, Jason M.; Schmalz, Naomi A. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2023
The Center for Anatomy and Physiology Education has hosted interactive human cadaver laboratory tours for local high schools (ages 14-18) and undergraduate university students since 2014 to expose students to healthcare careers. Students receive information on the history of body donation and healthcare careers and observe human anatomy on…

Ana Oliveira; Yasmeen Mezil; Noori Akhtar-Danesh; Andrew Palombella; Jasmine Rockarts; Sarah Wojkowski; Bruce Wainman – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2024
Interprofessional anatomy dissection (IAD) courses increase students' readiness for interprofessional education (IPE) both in-person and online. During the COVID-19 pandemic, virtual environments for anatomy learning were perceived as less effective. Hybrid instruction approaches emerged but have been scarcely evaluated. This study assessed…

Darici, Dogus; Schneider, Agnes Yüeh-Dan; Missler, Markus; Pfleiderer, Bettina – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2023
Sex and gender bias in anatomy learning materials are considered a "hidden obstacle" to gender equity in medical curricula. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether quantitative sex and gender biases do exist in popular anatomy e-learning platforms and compare the results with those found in contemporary textbooks and…

Dissabandara, Lakal O.; Nawaratna, Sujeevi; Nirthanan, Selvanayagam – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2023
The objective structured practical examination (OSPE) is a reliable assessment of practical skills in anatomy teaching. It is often administered as low-stake assessments to track progress at multiple time points in anatomy curricula. Standard-setting OSPEs to derive a pass mark and to ensure assessment quality and rigor is a complex task. This…

Time, Willie Solomona; Samalia, Latika; Wibowo, Erik – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2023
The Department of Anatomy at the University of Otago offers anatomical sciences education for various programs, but currently, little information is available on how the academic performance of anatomy students differ based on ethnicities. Here, we aim to determine if there is an ethnic disparity in academic performance among anatomy students at…

The COVID-19 pandemic required adjustments and limitations in university teaching, thereby challenging teaching concepts in anatomy requiring in-person contact, including the gross anatomy course. Therefore, the present study investigates the impact of COVID-19-associated adjustments on students' perception of the gross anatomy course's importance…
