Cooperative learning in anatomy: Comparing virtual avatars and human specimens

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Contemporary research demonstrated that undergraduate medical students rated an augmented reality learning tool entitled “human muscular arm avatar” as useful for their self‐directed individual learning. Beyond this subjective assessment, it was largely unknown whether avatar‐based study would also improve knowledge test scores at an objective
