ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study is to share examples of improved teaching and learning activities among medical students who participated in the dissection practice course, and to suggest improvement measures by surveying medical students’ perceptions. A total of 139 data were collected using an online survey method for second-year premedical students who were required to complete an dissection practice course. The data were analyzed using the t-test, paired t-test, and IPA techniques. The importance and utilization of the 8 teaching and learning activities were all relatively high, and a significant difference was found between importance and utilization. In terms of gender, female students were significantly lower than male students only in the utilization of ‘video on how to use dissection instruments’ and ‘incision with artificial leather’. ‘Sharing prior to practice what he/she will dissect’, and ‘incision with artificial leather’ were more important to general students than course retaking students. ‘Incision with artificial leather’ was significantly more utilized by general students than by course retaking students. As a result of the IPA analysis, the maintenance area (quadrant 1) with the high importance and utilization was ‘reading of a eulogy’ and ‘explanation after practice what he/she dissected’. The area of concentrated effort(quadrant 2) with the high importance and low utilization was ‘video on how to use dissection instruments’ and ‘incision with artificial leather’. Area targeted for improvement(quadrant 3) with both low importance and low utilization includes ‘orientation’, ‘sharing prior to practice what he/she will dissect’, and ‘table touring’. Status quo area (quadrant 4) with low importance and high utilization included the activity ‘writing the practice results’. As a way to improve dissection teaching and learning activities, it was suggested to provide a clear orientation including the purpose of each teaching and learning activity, to strengthen interaction between instructors and students, and to provide programs for peer-to-peer educational support. In order to improve the educational effectiveness of dissection practice, instructors’ continuous efforts to improve teaching and learning activities are necessary
