The beauty of experiential learning in anatomy
Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.Abstract Anatomy is a unique subject where one must learn by doing. This is achieved through a variety of methods like dissection, use of prosections, imaging, playful learning (crocheting structures, drawing, and painting organs), through functional movement like yoga or pilates, use of 3D plastic models or by immersing oneself in virtual or augmented

From classroom to clinic: Evaluating the educational utility of two Thiel embalming methods
Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.Abstract Over three decades since its introduction, the Thiel embalming method remains a widely used and praised technique in anatomical education and clinical training. This study compared for the first time the Thiel original protocol (TO) and a Modified version (TM) across user groups—undergraduate medical students, student demonstrators in anatomy,

Expert‐validated criteria for evaluating 2D anatomical images: Results of a Delphi consensus study
Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.Abstract Currently, there are no consensus standards for the selection of two‐dimensional (2D) anatomical images that form the basis of anatomy education. The absence of standardized evaluation criteria may contribute to variability in image quality and inconsistencies in the educational use of anatomical visuals, potentially affecting students ...

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.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.

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.Abstract Gross anatomy education has undergone significant changes due to evolving curricular demands, leading to reduced hands‐on dissection opportunities in many medical schools. The purpose of this study was to compare the academic performance of medical student dissectors and those assigned to prosection‐based learning across anatomical regions ...

Framing anatomical variation in anatomy textbooks: Language use and its implications
Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.Text mining of anatomy textbooks shows “abnormal” is the most frequently used descriptor for anatomical variation, reinforcing a binary framing. We advocate for explicit teaching of variation as a spectrum, with consistent, neutral terminology and contextualization (prevalence and functional relevance) to support a more nuanced understanding of ...

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.Abstract Gamified teaching approaches are increasingly used in higher education, making it essential to examine the gameful experience resulting from interaction with educational game elements. This study aimed to evaluate undergraduate health science students' gamified learning experience using the Gamified Experience Measurement Scale in Education ...

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.Abstract Providing students with a way to honor human body donors during or after an anatomy course has been shown to help provide a sense of closure and comfort to students and, when present, donor families. Gestures of gratitude for donors can also emphasize humanistic values of respect, empathy, and professionalism.
