Face to Face: lectures, Live in the amphitheater, one hour of laboratory training on volunteers – models or using CAL (computer assisted learning)

Information and Communication Technologies are used for the preparation of the lecture material, the online information and provision of supplementary learning material to students.

Specifically:

• Common software (e.g. MS powerpoint) is used to prepare lecture material and display slides and videos.
• The study guide (detailed supplementary material & additional bibliography), the tutorial material (clinical cases), the theory and protocols of the laboratory exercises, the slides of each lecture as well as relevant videos and scientific articles made available electronically and online to students through the e-class system of our university.
• Information about the course, instructors and their research interests are available online on the Laboratory website
• Common software (e.g. MS excel) is used to statistically process student assessment.

Announcements, information etc are available online via e-class. Communication is also done via e-mail.

The language of assessment is English.

Evaluation methods.Written exams – potentially online exams.

The general evaluation criteria are analyzed in the introductory lesson.

The aim of the course is to study the individual structures of man in the three anatomical planes in cadaveric preparations. This will help to understand the relationships of the different organs and structures of the human body to each other as well as to understand the different surgical approaches. The study of human anatomy through cadaveric cross-sections offers a different perspective on the position, size, shape and relationships between organs and structures.

Upon successful completion of the course the student will be able to:

– Have an understanding of anatomy

– Be able to distinguish topographical anatomy

– Use anatomy in clinical practice

– Analyze and understand surgical approaches

– Can interpret anatomical correlations

General Abilities

• Research, analysis and synthesis of data and information, using the necessary technologies
• Adaptation to new situations
• Decision making
• Autonomous work
• Teamwork
• Exercise criticism and self-criticism
• Promoting free, creative and inductive thinking

The course will be based on cadaveric preparations from our laboratory as well as high-resolution images from the Visible Human Project of the National Library of Medicine, USA.

In addition to the lectures, the course will include laboratory exercises on cadaveric preparations. During the laboratory exercises, cross-sections of fresh frozen cadaveric preparations will be made in which the various anatomical features will be identified.
