Article Synopsis
- Anatomy is a crucial subject in medical education, but the time and resources allocated for its teaching are decreasing due to the rise of computer-assisted learning (CAL) methods.
- A study involving 611 medical students found a strong positive correlation between the number of CAL training sessions and the students' performance in both Musculoskeletal Anatomy and Cardiovascular Anatomy courses.
- The results indicate that more CAL training leads to better performance, suggesting that personalized approaches based on students' learning profiles could enhance the educational experience in anatomy.
Article Synopsis
- New pedagogical methods, like computer-assisted learning (CAL), are being implemented in medical education to enhance anatomy knowledge and assess students' learning profiles.
- A study with 671 medical students measured their spatial abilities before and after CAL sessions, showing significant improvement in scores after training (from 9.72 to 17.05).
- Results indicated that while male students initially had better spatial skills, CAL training benefitted all students equally, and improvements in spatial abilities were linked to the amount of anatomy training received.
Introduction: Due to scientific and technological development, Medical Education has been readjusting its focus and strategies. Medical curriculum has been adopting a vertical integration model, in which basic and clinical sciences coexist during medical instruction. This context favours the introduction of new complementary technology-based pedagogical approaches.
