Upper Limb Bone Video for Gross Human Anatomy
Abstract Introduction Many students left to their own may not discern the orientation of the scapula in the body, the relationship of the radius and ulna, or the order of the carpal bones.

| description | Abstract Introduction Many students left to their own may not discern the orientation of the scapula in the body, the relationship of the radius and ulna, or the order of the carpal bones. The goal of this video is to prepare students for their study of the upper limb bones, and to illustrate key relationships they are likely to overlook without careful study. The video also describes the structures of the elbow using all three of the bones involved, among the most efficient ways to learn them. The questions accompanying this video will allow students to a careful study of the bones of the upper limb. Methods This 12-minute video provides a tutorial on the bones of the upper limb. It includes the scapula, clavicle, humerus, ulna, radius, carpals, metacarpals, and phalanges. Important structures on each bone are described along with mnemonics that aid with learning the complicated regions. Faculty members who show this video during class will need the appropriate software to view MP4 videos. If faculty members post this video on their classroom management system, their students will need the appropriate software. No preparation is necessary, besides ensuring the appropriate software to view the video is available. Results Students have found the bone video tutorials to be extremely helpful. Student feedback of the tutorial videos was overwhelmingly positive, with a 68% increase in satisfaction from a group of students utilizing the videos versus a control group. Student comments include “I have greater confidence and understanding of the dissections” and “I couldn't understand what they described in the book, but the video helped it all make sense.” Discussion We have utilized the video by either showing it in class or having students view it before they attend lab. We encourage the use of videos to help guide students in human anatomy dissection and identification of bony landmarks. |
