Granatosky – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2025
Access to high-quality outreach programs is crucial for preparing students for STEM careers, yet traditional classrooms often lack diverse, hands-on learning opportunities, particularly in anatomy and evolutionary biology. We present "Are You Stronger Than a Lemur?"--an interactive STEM activity that introduces K-12 students to…

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…

Corte-Real, Ana; Nunes, Tiago; Caetano, Catarina; Almiro, Pedro A. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2021
E-learning is an educational method that improves knowledge innovation by sharing relevant images for advanced learning, especially in a pandemic state. Furthermore, cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is a method that gathers medical or dental diagnostic images. This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of dental anatomy education through a…

Maloney, Stephen; Pather, Nalini; Foo, Jonathan; Lazarus, Michelle D. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2021
Studies of "cost and value" in anatomical sciences education examine not only what works, but at what cost, thus evaluating the inputs and outputs of education. This research provides insights into how to use available resources (e.g., academic time, budgets, infrastructure) as a mechanism to obtaining the maximum outcomes available. The…

Wheble, Roisin; Channon, Sarah Beth – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2021
Despite the uncontested importance of anatomy as one of the foundational aspects of undergraduate veterinary programs, there is still limited information available as to what anatomy knowledge is most important for the graduate veterinarian in their daily clinical work. The aim of this study was therefore to gain a deeper understanding of the role…

Baptiste, Yvonne M. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2021
This article explores the effects of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on the evolution of both physical and digital cadavers within the unique ecosystem of the anatomy laboratory. A physical cadaver is a traditional and established learning tool in anatomy education, whereas a digital cadaver is a relatively recent phenomenon. The…

Chaker, Rawad; Gallot, Mélanie; Binay, Marion; Hoyek, Nady – Educational Technology & Society, 2021
Embodiment is particularly relevant for learning anatomy as the knowledge to be acquired is related to the body itself. Several tools using three-dimensional (3D) anatomical structures and avatars (e.g. augmented reality; virtual reality; immersive anatomy; 3D animations) were developed to enrich students' experience by including gestures and body…

McConnell, Sarah E. A.; Mooney, Christopher J. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2021
Knowledge of embryology is foundational for understanding normal anatomy and birth defects, yet, embryology is a notoriously difficult subject for medical students. Embryonic lateral folding in particular is one of the most challenging concepts in embryology. Highly effective teaching methods that promote active engagement with dynamic,…

Wainman, Bruce C.; Cornwall, Jon – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2019
Around the world, the recent introduction of assisted death laws has meant that undertaking medical assistance in dying (MAID) is now an option for some persons wishing to end their life. Some of these people donate their bodies to medical science, and by doing so have created a new route from which donor programs can now receive bodies. Such…

Catena, Robert D.; Carbonneau, Kira J. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2019
A qualitative biomechanics (functional anatomy) course is a typical course in kinesiology curriculum. Most evidence suggests that biomechanics learning could be improved with the inclusion of laboratory experiences. However, implementing laboratories into biomechanics curriculum is difficult due to cost and time constraints. This study was…

Zheng, Yu Hang; Palombella, Andrew; Salfi, Jenn; Wainman, Bruce – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2019
Several studies have shown significant improvements in the attitudes and perceptions of healthcare professional students toward interprofessional education (IPE) immediately following intervention with IPE courses. However, there remains little evidence on the lasting effects of IPE courses and the long-term influences of these IPE experiences are…

Cottone, Dina M.; McCabe, Paul C. – Communique, 2019
Although Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) affects approximately 5% of children, the disorder is more frequently seen in males than in females, with a male-to-female ratio of approximately 2:1 in children (APA 2013). This discrepancy in prevalence is suggested to lie in the differences in ADHD symptomatology between girls and boys.…

Schaefer, Audra F.; Wilson, Adam B.; Barger, J. Bradley; Azim, Homaira M.; Brokaw, James J.; Brooks, William S. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2019
Anatomical sciences are foundational to the health professions, yet little is known about the qualifications of anatomy educators at the graduate and professional level in the United States. Moreover, there is concern that the number of qualified anatomy educators being trained may be insufficient to meet the growing demand posed by new and…

Ediger, Tracy L.; Rockwell, Katherine A. – HAPS Educator, 2020
In March 2020, in-person, on-campus courses were temporarily suspended due to the Covid-19 pandemic. For summer and fall semesters of 2020, we have conducted Anatomy and Physiology courses in the online environment, which required re-design of the lab component of the course. Objectives for our re-design included maintaining key curricular…

O'Loughlin, Valerie Dean; Griffith, Lauren Miller – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2020
Incorporating metacognitive strategies in the classroom helps students monitor and adjust their learning strategies throughout the semester, and helps students progress from novice to expert learners in a subject. Journaling (i.e., reflective writing) is one metacognitive task that allows students to contemplate and articulate their skill…
