Abstract Mixed reality (MR) using head‐mounted displays provides three‐dimensional visualizations that have been suggested to enhance learning when used alongside conventional anatomy teaching in medical education. This study explored student perceptions of the integration of MR and traditional cadaveric learning, and their optimal delivery to support ...

Feedback strategies: Applying theory to practice
Abstract Feedback is a cornerstone of the learning process, as evidenced by extensive educational research on enhancing its process and impact. However, learners consistently rate the quality of feedback lower compared to other aspects of teaching. Over the past decade, feedback models have shifted from a traditional, one‐way transmission from educator

Emotional responses of veterinary students to first encounters with animal body donors
Abstract Students' first encounters with animal body donors in higher education are a formative and also potentially stressful experience. The complex emotions elicited by body donor use in learning and their effects on professional development have been documented in medical students, but are far less explored in veterinary medical counterparts.

Abstract Histology is a visually complex and cognitively demanding subject often perceived as abstract, memorization‐heavy, and disconnected from clinical practice. Despite its foundational importance, histology is frequently under‐emphasized relative to gross anatomy and lacks interactive, multimodal resources tailored to its unique challenges.
