There is insufficient evidence supporting complete dissection as essential for medical student education. Due to physical constraints, we employed a hybrid teaching method. Gross anatomy practical examinations from two medical student classes were analyzed to determine performance on dissected versus student-prosected material. Overall, student performance on questions pertaining to personally dissected material was similar to performance on questions learned by studying student-prosected material. We found dissection time can be reduced without impacting medical student examination performance.

Mass Casualty Incident Training in Immersive Virtual Reality: Quasi-Experimental Evaluation of Multimethod Performance Indicators.
J Med Internet Res
January 2025
Psychological Institute and Network Aging Research, Heidelberg University, Heidelberg, Germany.
Background: Immersive virtual reality (iVR) has emerged as a training method to prepare medical first responders (MFRs) for mass casualty incidents (MCIs) and disasters in a resource-efficient, flexible, and safe manner. However, systematic evaluations and validations of potential performance indicators for virtual MCI training are still lacking.
Objective: This study aimed to investigate whether different performance indicators based on visual attention, triage performance, and information transmission can be effectively extended to MCI training in iVR by testing if they can discriminate between different levels of expertise.

Background: Primary school teachers play a critical role as educators in imparting healthy eating behaviour and the importance of physical activity to prevent health issues. However, the teachers' health behaviors have not been studied much, particularly in Saudi Arabia. Understanding these factors is essential to developing interventions that enhance teachers' well-being and their ability to influence students positively.
