Effects of Covid-19: The Need to Assess the Real Value of Anatomy Education.

Abstract

Anatomy educators are focused on designing and developing learning and teaching approaches that provide for the most effective learning experience, lead to measurable learning gain and prepare students for the next phase of their learning journey and career track. The eagerness of educators to evaluate and challenge approaches and pedagogy has seen an exponential increase in scholarship within anatomical education over recent years as demonstrated by the number and quality of published outputs across many educational journals including Anatomical Sciences Education. Such activity bodes well for the provision of effective learning opportunities for students, the continued advancement of evidence-based practice in the teaching of the anatomical sciences, and the ability to adapt and respond to disruptions within the higher education environment.
