Teaching strategies in human anatomy using alternative methodologies: influence on university students’ learning. Educ. Puc. [online]. 2022, vol.27, e225209.

This study provides an analysis of the complementary use of alternative methodologies in the teaching of Human Anatomy at a public university in the Vale do São Francisco since the teaching-learning process is constantly improving to improve education. The elaboration of new teaching methods are strategies to add and make the classes of the discipline more pleasant and to overcome the challenges of the traditional class, such as the difficulty in obtaining corpses for dissection. In this way, students enrolled in the Systemic Human Anatomy discipline of health care courses (n=79) traditionally took practical classes (using plastic and cadaveric models), and with alternative methodologies. An activity was applied for each content, such as Body Painting, Face Mat, Image and Action Game, Clay, History Book, Papercraft, and Painting on Paper. Each class taught was assessed for knowledge obtained by students through pre and post-tests, specific questionnaires, and student satisfaction according to the methodology proposed was measured using a Likert scale questionnaire. It was evident that alternative methodologies have been shown to promote learning in Human Anatomy, providing a more meaningful and effective memory of the content and being well accepted by students of Health Sciences courses.
