Abstract
Introduction: Human anatomy is a foundational discipline in medical education, focusing
on the structural and functional relationships within the human body. Rooted in ancient
Greek origins, the term "anatomy" signifies the dissection and study of body structures.
As medical education evolves, bridging theoretical knowledge with clinical application
becomes essential. Various teaching methods aim to enhance students’ practical skills
and engagement in anatomy addressing the challenge of memorization and application.
Traditional teaching methods, including dissection, prosecution, tutorials, and lectures,
have long been supplemented by modern approaches such as anatomical models and
e-learning. Despite these advancements, the preferences of medical students and anatomy
faculty towards teaching methods remain unclear. Emerging trends like e-learning and
technological innovations present new opportunities and challenges, especially amid the
COVID-19 pandemic, necessitating a comprehensive understanding of effective teaching
strategies.
