Osteohistology of two phorusrhacids reveals uninterrupted growth strategy

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Phorusrhacidae were apex predators that primarily dominated South America ecosystems for at least 40 million years with their imposing size and predatory lifestyle—yet some aspects of their biology remain poorly understood. Osteohistology is a tool for understanding growth dynamics and biomechanical adaptations.

“Because everybody's different”: Co‐designing body donor program consent processes

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract While it is broadly accepted that body donation for anatomical education should rely on informed consent, consent processes vary substantially. Best practice guidelines for body donation are typically published by anatomical societies and may not reflect details valued by prospective donors or the educators and students who utilize donor ...

A gamified formative question bank to enhance student learning and engagement in a foundational medical science course

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract While gamified learning platforms show promise for engaging digital learners and promoting active learning, evidence of their effectiveness in predicting academic outcomes remains limited. This study examined how engagement patterns and incentives impact academic outcomes in a gamified environment to determine whether a formative question bank

Students as partners: A novel approach to developing a gamified anatomical learning toolkit using design thinking principles

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract The practice of involving students in designing pedagogical resources, including gamified learning tools, is often underutilized. Traditionally, students are engaged in usability and efficacy testing of finalized learning tools, limiting their ability to shape the learning experience from inception.

The paper puzzle as an active learning tool in the teaching of anatomy: A qualitative study of perceptions in students and near‐peer teachers

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Active learning strategies enhance medical education by fostering self‐directed learning, communication, and problem‐solving skills. The paper puzzle, a game‐based learning approach, provides an engaging way to reinforce anatomical knowledge and promote collaboration.

A gamified resource for learning anatomy terminology aids retention

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract A card game, “Hold your Nerve,” was developed to aid memorization of anatomy terminology in small‐group learning formats. Each of the 719 cards consisted of an anatomical term and its definition. To play, a student blindly holds a card so as to block the definition but display the term to the group, who must provide verbal/physical clues to ...

Medical Jargon: A game‐based anatomy and physiology review for high school students in a summer pathway program

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Active learning strategies, particularly game‐based learning (GBL), have been shown to enhance student engagement and knowledge acquisition across various educational contexts. This study investigates the impact of a GBL activity, “Medical Jargon,” for high school students learning anatomy and physiology while participating in the 2024 Summer ...

Community building through play: Development and design of a board game for review in an undergraduate anatomy course

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Engaging students and fostering interactions can be a challenge in large enrollment, foundational‐level, undergraduate anatomy classes. Despite the active learning environment of the anatomy laboratory, students often struggle to find study partners or even speak to fellow learners in a large classroom.
