Aidan A. Ruth; Kristina Dzara – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2025
Metacognition includes the processes that learners use to plan, monitor, and assess their learning and is tied to academic performance and growth-oriented attitudes toward learning. Learning anatomy presents challenges to learners at all levels, and for many, necessitates a change in learning strategies and metacognitive awareness. We sought to…

Jessica A. Adams; Bryan M. Dewsbury; Joshua R. Tanzer – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2024
Undergraduate introductory human anatomy and human physiology courses are either taught as discipline-specific or integrated anatomy and physiology (A&P) sequences. An institution underwent a curricular revision to change the course approach from discipline-specific Human Anatomy and Human Physiology to an integrated A&P I and II sequence,…

Pre-lab summary videos supplement gross anatomy courses by helping students navigate difficult concepts, increasing student confidence, and allowing for content review outside the laboratory. Few studies have examined the direct correlation between video viewing and performance outcomes. This study uses performance outcome data from six…

Gross anatomy courses utilize cadaver dissection to teach identification, topography, and spatial relationships of organs. The deconstructive nature of dissection, however, focuses students' attention on the "big picture", followed by a discovery of details. This approach may be useful for many, however some students may prefer to…

Lorena Latre-Navarro; Alejandro Quintas-Hijós; María-José Sáez-Bondía – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2024
According to self-determination theory, the need for competence, autonomy, and relatedness has been associated with intrinsic motivation. Fulfilling basic psychological needs can lead to better learning, academic performance, and well-being. In this study, an anatomy program integrated gamification and drawing methods to explore their influence on…

In 1993, an increase was observed in the spatial IQ scores of the volunteers who listened to Mozart's sonata K448 for 10 min, and this phenomenon entered the literature as the "Mozart effect." Other studies have shown that this effect is particularly evident in spatial skill tests. A large body of research has provided evidence that…

Gilbert R. Pitts; Amy L. Thompson; Michelle Rogers; James F. Thompson; Joseph R. Schiller – HAPS Educator, 2024
Human Anatomy and Physiology courses are "gateway" courses that students must pass with high grades in order to proceed through their program of study. However, student pass rates are often low, resulting in students attempting the course multiple times and delaying their graduation. Supplemental instruction performed by peer leaders is…

Varun Shenoy; Arjun Kumar Ghimire; Chaya Gopalan – Advances in Physiology Education, 2024
Human anatomy education serves as a gateway for entering the intricacies of health science. Human cadavers have been the gold standard for learning regional and gross anatomy. However, increasing barriers in acquisition, maintenance, and longevity have pushed anatomy education toward technology-based alternatives such as the Anatomage Table (AT),…

Rebecca Ozelie; Saba Elothman; Bridget Hahn – Journal of Occupational Therapy Education, 2025
Student success in anatomy courses is critical for entry-level occupational therapy doctorate (OTD) programs, yet many students struggle to master this foundational subject. Research on effective academic interventions to support anatomy learning in OTD programs is limited, leaving a gap in understanding the impact of supplemental resources. This…

Critical analysis (CA) skills are crucial in higher education and should be incorporated into the curriculum at that level. The unique characteristics of abstract biology materials and the involvement of prospective Biology teachers (PBTs) in scientific investigation activities make them highly relevant for teaching CA skills. Inquiry activities…
