Elective Title: 02DA700 — ANATOMY EDUCATION

Description:

This elective is designed for students who are interested in academic medicine. Students will be introduced to pedagogy and learning theory as they develop and implement an educational module that focuses on a clinical application of gross anatomy. The topic of the module will be selected based upon the goals and interests of the student in consultation with the course director. The module/presentation may be a power point presentation, video, TBL/PBL case, anatomical model, cadaver prosection, or any other modality deemed appropriate. The module must include a set of learning objectives and an assessment tool or other means of providing feedback to the learners. The finished product is intended to be a complete, self-contained module that supplements the gross anatomy curriculum.
