ABSTRACT

Anatomy is a subject that allows medical students to understand the structure of a healthy human three-dimensionally through lectures and practice before learning human diseases. Due to its academic characteristics, it is difficult to expect sufficient educational effects of face-to-face education curriculum in current Corona era. Thus, this study is to confirm the changes of teaching method under the pandemic of Corona and estimate prospective trends of anatomical education in the future. A survey was conducted by distributing questionnaires to 44 professors majored in anatomy. The contents of the questionnaire were the pattern of lecture and practice, academic achievement and satisfaction of anatomy subject in the first semester of 2021. As a result, the patterns of lectures and practice varied according to universities. Most of the lectures were conducted online class, and dissection practice was conducted offline (face to face). The academic achievements of students in both lectures and practice were lowered or unchanged. The students’ satisfaction levels about lectures were increased. However, those about practices were decreased. The professors estimated that lecture pattern would be changed into a more complex form, but they did still want to apply traditional offline lectures in post-Corona era. Also, they preferred the dissection practice in offline manner during and after Corona pandemic. To secure faculties resources was necessary for the introduction of flipped learning and educational video. In conclusion, it may be impossible to return to previous method of anatomy education in the post-Corona era. We should gather wisdom to actively utilize the well-developed audiovisual tools, and to suggest a new paradigm of anatomical education in the post-Corona era.
