Approaching Diversity in Anatomical Education through Metaverse

Our work intends to introduce a novel technological resource for approaching diversity in anatomical education. We conclude that the metaverse can facilitate the diversification of anatomical education by providing access to scarce educational resources and laboratory materials. Furthermore, we pave the way for new tutoring approaches for non-standard student groups, the personalization of content, and the implementation of specific assessments. Finally, we provide essential takeaways and outline future directions and challenges for this ongoing research area.

Abstract

Our work intends to introduce a novel technological resource for approaching diversity in anatomical education. We conclude that the metaverse can facilitate the diversification of anatomical education by providing access to scarce educational resources and laboratory materials. Furthermore, we pave the way for new tutoring approaches for non-standard student groups, the personalization of content, and the implementation of specific assessments. Finally, we provide essential takeaways and outline future directions and challenges for this ongoing research area.
