Eineljung, Lars; Prytz, Kjell – Physics Education, 2019
In order to increase understanding of the cochlea and to illustrate its connection to basic physics, a functional model was developed. It was found to be useful in exploring the basic dynamics of the basilar membrane and its role in the frequency mapping of the cochlea.

Williams, Sutton R.; Thompson, Kenneth L.; Notebaert, Andrew J.; Sinning, Allan R. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2019
Due to the current trend of decreasing contact hours and less emphasis being given to the basic science courses in the pre-clinical years of medical education, it is essential that new approaches to teaching gross anatomy are investigated to ensure medical students are being adequately exposed to anatomical content. This study retrospectively…

D'Arcy, Christina E.; Lapsov, Leonid; Navarro, Vanessa; Nevarez, Denise; Olimpo, Jeffrey T. – Advances in Physiology Education, 2023
Previously, we described a course-based undergraduate research experience (CURE) for first-year students that featured a unique approach to brain mapping in a model organism (rat). In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we adapted this course for an online learning environment, emphasizing image analysis (identifying immunoreactive signal in an…

J. C. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2023
Historically, Anatomy education is an in-person discipline involving exposure to human body donors that facilitates personal and professional growth through, in part, the initiation of reflection on the topic of death. However, during the COVID-19 pandemic the decreased exposure to cadaveric anatomy for many health professions students may have…

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…

Cheung, Rocky Chun Chung; Chen, Bixia; Ho, Cheuk Chun Joseph; Tipoe, George L.; Yang, Jian – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2023
This article investigates the level of anatomical knowledge of the Hong Kong public and uses the data to help suggest public engagement activities and health campaigns to raise health literacy in the general population. In the annual public engagement event organized by the University of Hong Kong, 250 attendees took a survey assessing basic…

Stephanie Mack; Sarah L. Barron; Alexander J. Boys – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
Digestion is a fundamentally important process for an individual's life. However, the physical process of digestion is hidden inside the body, making it challenging to understand and a particularly difficult topic for students to learn in the classroom. Traditional approaches to teaching body processes include a mixture of textbook teaching and…

Wiets Botes – European Journal of STEM Education, 2025
The use of VR-based OERs in STEM education has the potential to enhance teaching and learning by making it more immersive and interactive. Despite their increased availability in higher education, there is limited understanding of how these resources support pre-service life science teachers' subject knowledge and pedagogical skills. This study…

Jones, David Gareth – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2020
The move of much anatomy teaching online in response to the Covid-19 pandemic has been successfully implemented within very short time frames. This has necessitated a high degree of dependence upon the use of digitized cadaveric resources, has entailed immense workload demands on staff, and has disrupted students' studies. These educational…

Brewer-Deluce, Danielle; Sharma, Bhanu; Akhtar-Danesh, Noori; Jackson, Thomas; Wainman, Bruce C. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2020
Course evaluations can be used for curriculum improvement and have the potential to better the student learning experience. However, because most are based on Likert scales and open-ended feedback, understanding diversity in student opinion and uncovering optimal options for course change and improvement are often difficult. Alternatively,…

Wilkinson, Kate; Dafoulas, George; Garelick, Hemda; Huyck, Christian – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2020
Recently, there has been an increased volume of pedagogical research and practice of mobile learning (m-learning) and gameplay in education. This paper presents the findings of a study that examined the effect on achievement and explored student perception towards quiz-game play prior to an anatomy assessment in first year Higher Education…

Labranche, Leah; Wilson, Timothy D.; Terrell, Mark; Kulesza, Randy J. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2022
Three-dimensional (3D) digital anatomical models show potential to demonstrate complex anatomical relationships; however, the literature is inconsistent as to whether they are effective in improving the anatomy performance, particularly for students with low spatial visualization ability (Vz). This study investigated the educational effectiveness…

Santos, Vinícius A.; Barreira, Matheus P.; Saad, Karen R. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2022
The consolidation of technology as an alternative strategy to cadaveric dissection for teaching anatomy in medical courses was accelerated by the recent COVID-19 pandemic, which caused the need for social distance policies and the closure of laboratories and classrooms. Consequently, new technologies were created, and those already been developed…

Hui, Luotong; Bruin, Anique B. H.; Donkers, Jeroen; Merriënboer, Jeroen J. G. – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2022
Although retrieval practice is a more effective learning strategy than restudy, students oftentimes prefer the latter. Previous studies have investigated this suboptimal decision at strategy level. The present study, however, focused on the learning task level: How perceived mental effort and perceived learning during task performance influence…

Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) disrupted the in-person teaching format of anatomy. To study changes in gross anatomy education that occurred during August--December, 2020 compared to before the pandemic, an online survey was distributed to anatomy educators. The 191 responses received were analyzed in total and by academic program, geographic…
