Abstract:
During COVID-19, the anatomy faculty and students at Schulich School of Medicine and Dentistry observed strengths and weaknesses in their transition to online learning. A "four-prong" approach to teaching anatomy was developed. Asynchronous content modules were tailored to specific learning objectives, virtual labs were implemented to work through case-based applications, "live from the lab" review sessions provided the opportunity for interaction and integration, and finally, limited face-to-face laboratory sessions provided an opportunity for supervised consolidation with cadaveric specimens. Our approach may be used by other institutions to enhance anatomical education and student engagement.
