“…Multiple authors already applied similar methods to develop complementary tools for the neuroanatomy teaching, producing material like real cadavers that are anatomical models that could be integrated to the undergraduate curriculum in order to supplement and solve the problems associated with the neuroanatomy learning (Christ et al, 2018; Raffan et al, 2017). Even the digital platform developed by this research has not been tested by students yet, Pereira et al (2020), Sawras et al (2020), Hart et al (2021), and Singh et al (2021) reported that similar strategies applied by them greatly improved students learning. Hence, the expectation in having similar results regarding a future appliance of the feline, equine, and sheep CNS Study Platform by students.…”

“…However, due to various levels of constraints (Montanari, 2020; Ooi & Ooi, 2020), the cadaveric dissection class is likely to be further prioritized for surgical residents or medical trainees with surgical intention. Encouragingly, new forms of anatomy teaching and learning such as virtual anatomy laboratory have been established and well received by trainees (Flynn et al, 2021; Singh et al, 2021). Digital simulation via the virtually dissection table has been used for emergency bedside ultrasound courses, leading to improved trainee performance (Shi et al, 2019).…”

Digital technologies are changing the landscape of anatomy education. To reveal the trend of digital anatomy education across medical science disciplines, searches were performed using PubMed, EMBASE, and MEDLINE bibliographic databases for research articles published from January 2010 to June 2021 (inclusive). The search was restricted to publications written in English language and to articles describing teaching tools in undergraduate and postgraduate anatomy and pre‐vocational clinical anatomy training courses. Among 156 included studies across six health disciplines, 35% used three‐dimensional (3D) digital printing tools, 24.2% augmented reality (AR), 22.3% virtual reality (VR), 11.5% web‐based programs, and 4.5% tablet‐based apps. There was a clear discipline‐dependent preference in the choice and employment of digital anatomy education. AR and VR were the more commonly adopted digital tools for medical and surgical anatomy education, while 3D printing is more broadly used for nursing, allied health and dental health education compared to other digital resources. Digital modalities were predominantly adopted for applied interactive anatomy education and primarily in advanced anatomy curricula such as regional anatomy and neuroanatomy. Moreover, there was a steep increase in VR anatomy combining digital simulation for surgical anatomy training. There is a consistent increase in the adoption of digital modalities in anatomy education across all included health disciplines. AR and VR anatomy incorporating digital simulation will play a more prominent role in medical education of the future. Combining multimodal digital resources that supports blended and interactive learning will further modernize anatomy education, moving medical education further away from its didactic history.

“…Teachers can utilise ICT via video conferencing to instruct or monitor student's learning processes while they are separated by distance. For effective teaching/learning purposes various ICT tools like Zoom [61], MS Teams [62], Google meet [63], or Webex [64] are utilized. There is no alternative to online schooling due to Covid-19.…”

A Survey of Smart Classroom Literature

2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Recently, there has been a substantial amount of research on smart classrooms, encompassing a number of areas, including Information and Communication Technology, Machine Learning, Sensor Networks, Cloud Computing, and Hardware. Smart classroom research has been quickly implemented to enhance education systems, resulting in higher engagement and empowerment of students, educators, and administrators. Despite decades of using emerging technology to improve teaching practices, critics often point out that methods miss adequate theoretical and technical foundations. As a result, there have been a number of conflicting reviews on different perspectives of smart classrooms. For a realistic smart classroom approach, a piecemeal implementation is insufficient. This survey contributes to the current literature by presenting a comprehensive analysis of various disciplines using a standard terminology and taxonomy. This multi-field study reveals new research possibilities and problems that must be tackled in order to integrate interdisciplinary works in a synergic manner. Our analysis shows that smart classroom is a rapidly developing research area that complements a number of emerging technologies. Moreover, this paper also describes the co-occurrence network of technological keywords using VOSviewer for an in-depth analysis.
