Using the Situated Learning-Guided Educational Framework to Teach Anatomy of the Infratemporal Fossa and Retromandibular Region
Our findings suggest that a prosection-centered, instructor-guided workshop is an effective and low-stress approach for teaching students complex head and neck anatomy. This workshop can serve as an alternative to, or enhancement of, student-conducted dissection of the area. Although originally designed for medical students, the approach may also benefit learners in other health professions.
