Abstract:

The integration of technologies in modern medical education, offers new ways to address challenges in fostering cognitive activities, teamwork, and supportive environments. Furthermore, today’s learners are accustomed to technology-enhanced learning environments.

Using technologies particularly improves learning material visibility and perception, these resources can portray anatomical processes with remarkable clarity.

The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of the use of modern methods of technology in teaching anatomy by observing the teaching process and results, evaluating the influence and effects of new resources on anatomy knowledge and learning outcomes.

In order to achieve the goal of the research, we observed the results of studying anatomy within the "Body systems" educational modules. The study was conducted using a semi-experimental intervention method with 816 students of the ATSU MD program, Total Participants: 816 ATSU MD students, Control Group: 345 students (18 groups) with No visualization methods used, Intervention Group: 471 students split across 3 factors, Anatomage only 8 groups; 3D Organon VR Anatomy only 6 groups; Both Anatomage and 3D Organon VR 10 groups.

The evaluation of students assessed both knowledge and practical application using an Objective Structured Practical Exam (OSPE). Results showed higher attendance in groups using Anatomage, while control groups had 29% of students with low attendance. Additionally, students in intervention groups scored 6-7 points higher on average compared to control groups.

Modern educational technologies enhance learning outcomes, engagement, and student-centered learning by adapting to individual needs. Anatomy is considered to be the main pillar in medical education, integrating formal knowledge, clinical experience, and patient-centered care, all of which are supported by technologies.

Demonstration of educational materials using modern means of visualization, and identification of anatomical structures based on the analysis of theoretical issues, dramatically improves the ways of obtaining knowledge in anatomy, the use of technologies improves the involvement of students in the educational process, contributes to the development of the ability to apply the knowledge in practice, contributes to the creation of an environment based on teamwork and support.

In the era of implementation of artificial intelligence, innovative tools can elevate understanding and application of anatomy, make learning more dynamic, accessible, and efficient, it makes us think about ways to ensure readiness for future challenges.

This demonstrates how crucial it is to consistently guarantee the execution of educational programs with suitable learning materials in order to encourage dynamic, student-centered learning while accommodating individual demands.
