“…It recognizes that users are the most knowledgeable about their own experiences and that they should actively engage in the design process. This participation not only empowers users, but also results in designs that are closely aligned with their aims, values, and preferences (Ergano et al, 2020). HCD encourages collaboration among diverse teams made up of designers, engineers, psychologists, and domain specialists.…”

The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology with music instruction necessitates a delicate balance between technical advancement and the maintenance of humanistic teaching. This study examined how human-centered design concepts were used to optimize the integration of AI while also investigating the effects of AI technology on college-level music instruction in China. It aimed to identify potential, difficulties and make recommendations for ethical AI deployment in this particular environment. Semi-structured interviews with 20 music students and professors from Chinese higher education institutions were conducted using a qualitative study design. To condense significant themes and subthemes from the data, open coding, axial coding, and selective coding were used. The study revealed complex interactions between AI and Chinese music instruction. Themes included "Enhanced Learning with AI", emphasizing AI's role in motivating and personalizing music education; "User-Centric Design", emphasizing the importance of intuitive interfaces and aesthetic appeal; "Collaboration and Peer Learning", demonstrating AI's facilitation of collaborative projects; "Technical Challenges and Ethical Concerns", addressing technical obstacles and ethical concerns; and "Educator Support and Curriculum Alignment", emphasizing the importance of educator support and curriculum alignment. This study adds knowledge about how AI can be successfully incorporated into Chinese music teaching. It informs best practices for the adoption of AI, ensuring that technology enhances the learning experience for students while preserving cultural nuances. The study improves the conversation about innovative pedagogy and responsible technology integration. Implications include the potential for AI to change music education, cultural preservation, and global viewpoints. However, drawbacks such as sample bias and the dynamic nature of AI technology necessitate more study and development of educational techniques that use AI. Personalization and multimodal methods used in college music instruction in the future, to help increase student involvement. The importance of ethical issues, long-term effect analyses, and user-centered design will call for interdisciplinary cooperation. The future of AI-enhanced music education will also be shaped by assuring accessibility, diversity, and active engagement in policy and regulation discussions.

“…31 Anatomy teachers should not only demonstrate practical sessions in the gross anatomy laboratory, but also need to orient every activity and pay attention to any ethical abuse in the anatomy dissection laboratory. 32 Similarly, as this will be difficult in some cultures and religious organizations, anatomists should work to establish relationships of trust with their local communities and show how body donation can assist both the community and the profession. The Anatomical Society of Ethiopia should take the initiative in legalizing of professional secrets and confidentiality related to ethical cadaver usage and a voluntarily way of body procurement for anatomy teaching and research.…”

Background: Human anatomy has historically been a cornerstone in medical education and is special in that it uses human remains kept in various anatomical facilities like a morgue, gross anatomy laboratory, or museums for instruction and research. While serving knowledge advancement facilitating clinical practice and research, human cadaver handling, and usage at all levels, such as cadaver sourcing, transportation, storage, preservation, dissection, and final disposal deserves in return the utmost respect. In Ethiopia, even though there is not enough information on when, where, and by whom the first cadaver dissection was conducted, dissection is being conducted in many of its medical schools. Despite ethical necessity surrounding human body usage in every anatomical setting, there is still ethical and legal uncertainty due to several challenging barriers which is severe in developing nations including Ethiopia. The aim of this study is, therefore, to assess ethical practices of handling and usage of the human body to promote, in the near future, formulation and implementation of acceptable, respectful, and ethical guidelines for the anatomy dissection laboratories and related settings in Ethiopia. Methods:A multicentered cross-sectional study was used at selected anatomy facilities of eight Ethiopian medical schools. The collected data through structured questionnaires and checklists were cleaned, preset and entered in to SPSS version 20 for analysis. Internal consistency and reliability were measured by using Cronbach's alpha. Results: The study result showed vivid human body ethical breaches that ranged from lack of power by anatomy unit to oversee the process during sourcing, transportation, embalming, caring, and dissection of cadavers in the anatomy laboratories to student's mistreatment of cadavers. Conclusion:In addition to lack of compliance due to lack of standard ethical guidelines or policies regarding human body usage, the compliance-based professional development is also nonexistent. The ethical way of body sourcing is through body donation; however, in Ethiopia, anatomy teaching exclusively depends on unclaimed bodies. Using a body for dissection that is solely sourced unethically may generate a negative emotional sense of life for anatomy instructors, technical assistants, morticians, and medical students. We inspire better provision of moral and ethical exercise with the good practice concerning the human body through recognizing the humanity and uniqueness of the deceased person. The results of this study serve as a serious condemnation of practices in Ethiopian anatomy facilities and we urge the Anatomical Society of Ethiopia to play its part in changing the present practices related to ethical and legal uncertainty of the human body usage.

“…Analyzing the literature that focused on body donation, one can note that a substantial portion of such studies is devoted to the attitude of students, from both medical and non-medical faculties, to the act of donating organs for transplantation [10,12,15,25,29,32,33,35,36,39,43,44,48], to the cadaver dissection for teaching anatomy [2,6,24] as well as to the attitude towards body donation among university staff [4,5,13,38,47], or among the elderly [31]. There are but a few studies that deal with the attitude to whole body donation after death, particularly among the students who do not plan to become medical doctors.…”
