The Thoughts of the 2nd Graduate Students Of The Faculty of Medicine About Anatomy Practice Exams
Abstract
In assessing the adequacy and effectiveness of medical education, concrete data, and evidence-based information are essential. Especially taking the opinions and suggestions of the students is guiding the direction of medical education. Therefore, in our study, a questionnaire consisting of twelve questions was applied. The aim of this the present study is to determine the thoughts and suggestions of the second year medical faculty students about anatomy practice courses.
The study included 139 volunteers 2nd-grade medical faculty student (104 female and 35 male students) who agreed to answer the questionnaire. While 55.4% of the students thought that the time allocated for anatomy applications was sufficient, 61.15% stated that they would participate in the practical courses even though the lecture attendance would not be taken during the course. Almost all of the students (98.6%) want their instructors to make models or cadaveric demonstrations during the laboratory practices. 82.73% of the students think that the anatomy practice exams are required at the end of the committee and 75,53% of them think that the measurement and evaluation of the examination by using cadaver, model, and bone on the tables is more appropriate. Besides, 91.36% of the students stated that the study notes should be given before the practice of anatomy.
The feedback from the students shows that the practical lessons in understanding human anatomy are of vital importance and the majority of students accepts the current practices. However, evaluation of the requested applications would facilitate understanding of subjects and increases success. In the preparation of training programs, the inclusion of clinical anatomy into the curriculum may be useful in improving the quality of medical education.
