ABSTRACT

A clinical laboratory scientist is a type of medical technician who performs diagnostic and physiological tests and anatomical and pathological tests. In the department of clinical laboratory science where they are trained, practical education in anatomy is essential for understanding the structure and function of the human body. However, the current educational approach consists of theory-oriented classes that rely on simple memorization, highlighting the necessity for practical anatomy education utilizing cadavers to achieve higher-quality learning. This study investigates the necessity of anatomy practical education in department of clinical laboratory science and aims to contribute to its systematic constitution. A survey was conducted with 69 students from a department of clinical laboratory science at a university who participated in an anatomy practical program at K University in Daegu. The survey aimed to investigate the effectiveness of anatomy practical education, appropriate teaching methods and time, and the necessity of its integration into the standard curriculum. The survey consisted of 13 multiple-choice questions, 2 multiple-response questions, and 2 open-response questions. According to the results, all 69 students expressed interest in anatomy practical, with 94.2% stating that it should be included in the regular curriculum. 88.4% of students responded that utilizing cadavers is beneficial as an educational method. The most preferred timing for effective practical education was the second year (53.6%), with 60 minutes (33.3%) identified as the appropriate duration for pre-education, and 2~3 hours (46.4%) for practical sessions. The systems and areas students expressed a desire to observe more closely were the digestive system (17.2%) and the head region (17.6%), respectively. Through this study, the demand and necessity for practical anatomy education were identified, and it is necessary to improve the quality of anatomy practice education by researching practical methods that can enhance the effectiveness of anatomy education for clinical laboratory science students.
