| Course description | Individuals in groups of 4/5 will be expected to dissect a whole human cadaver to the level of that contained in Grants Dissector 15th edition. Specifically, they will be expected to prepare high quality dissections of various regions of the human body and to acquire the knowledge of regional and systematic anatomy sufficient to understand and then explain to others what is shown by each dissection. Each student working alone and collaboratively will produce material which will be assessed in terms of its quality and value for teaching as an aid.
Aims and Objectives:
1. To understand the anatomy of the human body both systematically and regionally.
2. To be able to dissect human cadaveric material to a standard required such that the material can be used to teach undergraduates, postgraduates and professionals.
3. To be able to clearly demonstrate and explain the anatomy as dissected.

Summary of Intended Learning Outcomes
1. Each student will generate a series of six dissected specimens (prosections) across both Basic Human Anatomy 1 and Basic Human Anatomy 2.
2. Each student will gain a clear understanding and appreciation of the regions studied.
3. Each student will demonstrate ability to succinctly explain the key anatomical features and relations of each region of the body studied. |
Assessment Information
The quality of the prosections produced will be judged by staff in oral examination every other week (30%)
In conjunction with the above, the student's knowledge of the anatomy of the region dissected will be tested by a SPOT examination (50%)
Each student will write an Essay (20%) |
