The development of a core syllabus for the teaching of head and neck anatomy to medical students

Abstract: The study of human anatomy has traditionally served as a fundamental component in the basic science education of medical students, yet there exists a remarkable lack of firm guidance on essential features that must be included in a gross anatomy course, which would constitute a "Core Syllabus" of absolutely mandatory structures and related clinical pathologies. While universal agreement on the details of a core syllabus is elusive, there is a general consensus that a core syllabus aims to identify the minimum … Show more

“…More specialized syllabuses for the medical curriculum (but not yet for the dental curriculum) have been reported by Tubbs et al () and Tubbs and Paulk () for the head and neck, by Moxham et al (, b) for neuroanatomy and by Fakoya et al () for embryology and teratology (see also Leonard et al () for developmental anatomy). With the exception of the syllabus by Leonard et al (2000), these syllabuses belong to a proposed series of core syllabuses published by the International Federation of Associations of Anatomists (IFAA) using Delphi panel methodologies outlined by Moxham et al ().…”

“…It should be recognised that core syllabuses are also being devised by the International Federation of Associations of Anatomists (IFAA; Tubbs et al ; Moxham et al , ; Tubbs & Paulk, ; Fakoya et al ; Webb et al ). These do not use learning outcomes but, rather, are presented as lists of topics.…”
