Online Learning
This course will use Canvas as an eLearning platform for the dissemination of lecture notes and recordings, tutorial activities, and deployment of summative quizzes. Course content will be subdivided into modules in Canvas; each with folders disseminating copies of the didactic lecture notes, articulate storyline lectures, anatomy resource session notes; as well as folders with formative and summative assessment tasks relevant to each module. This course will also encompass blended learning approaches using innovative teaching styles including lightboard technology and videoscribe conceptional multimedia. Canvas will be used as the primary platform for announcements, the integration of learning pathways and to deploy student update emails. Private social media channels (medium TBD based on pre-class evaluation data) will be developed to encourage discussion, communication and resource sharing between students for spaced-and-paced revision. -
Learning & Teaching Activities
Learning & Teaching Modes
The course curriculum is segregated into introductory lectures and four content modules, divided by anatomical region. Specifically, students will be: introduced to the basic concepts of biomechanics, the macro and micro-structure of soft and hard tissues of the musculoskeletal system (MSK). This will be followed by segregation of MSK regional anatomy, including the osteology, arthology,neural, muscular and vascular systems for the (1) head and neck, (2) upper limbs, (3) lower limbs and (4) trunk.
Content for each module will be delivered using a blended/hybrid teaching and learning approach under utilising both flipped interactive sessions along with didactic delivery within the classroom. Compulsory system-based learning workshops and laboratory practicals each week will enable students to apply concepts to a real-world, clinical contex. These sessions are also desinged to devloping a form of team-based collaborative learning that incorporates small group activities at each station. Students will be exposed to cadaveric material, anatomical models, surface anatomy and medical images; combining a traditional “wet-laboratory” with interactive multimedia activities (e.g. virtual reality, Kahoot! quizzes and flag-races).
Students will also gain an understanding of the three-dimensional spatial arrangment of the human body using state-of-the-art virtual and augmented reality technologies and software in this course along with the use of the novel SECTRA table. revision sessions and formative assessment using a small group discovery experience (SGDE) format. Students will also be required to complete formative assessment in the form of weekly spotter tests or online quizzes for each module, designed both to test and reinforce students understanding of the content and to reveal to them what information may need further revision. This assessment will encourage students to keep up with the material throughout the course, and provides an opportunity for continual feedback. Select questions from the online quizzes, formatted to include multiple choice, fill-in-the-blanks, hot spots and short response type questions, will beincluded in the End of Semester theory exam.

Assessment
The 最新糖心Vlog's policy on Assessment for Coursework Programs is based on the following four principles:
- Assessment must encourage and reinforce learning.
- Assessment must enable robust and fair judgements about student performance.
- Assessment practices must be fair and equitable to students and give them the opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned.
- Assessment must maintain academic standards.
Assessment Summary
Assessment Task Task Type Due Weighting Learning Outcome Design your own assessment Summative 5% Anatomical Dialogue Group Project Summative 15% In-semester practical examinations Summative 20% End-of-semester practical examinations Summative 25% End-of-semester theory examinations Summative 35% Assessment Detail
Design your own assessment (5%): A small group-based activity where students formulate a single short answer (SAQ) consistent witht eh end-of-year theory examinatiion along with the correct/expected answer. Students will be disignated a specific module that the question must be based. Following submission, questions will be circulated throughout the class and used as a practice 'formative' assessment.
Anatomical Dialogue Group Project (15%): Individual groups formed in workshops will work together to source video footage relating to an injury or medical conditionof the musculoskeletal system. With reference to this footage, students will a) reflect and critique the anatomical dialogue used (or lack thereof) in the original voice-over of the commentator/presenter, and b) provide alternate dialogue to better explain the injury to a layperson. In the second part of this assignment, students will deliver an overview of the regional anatomy (i.e. bone/muscle/nerve) likely to be affected with the injury. A confidential peer-assessment will be included in this assessment.
In-semester practical examinations (20%): There will be Two (10% each) in-semester practical examinations that will be held during the allocated laboratory session in the Ray Last Anatomy Laboratory (SB02), which will cover a combination of lecture material & laboratory material. This 'spotter style' format will contain approximately 30-35 stations, with 75-second rotations between each; these exams are designed to determine students’ ability to identify osteological, arthological, nervous and vasculature 最新糖心Vlog of the anatomical regions covered over the course of the semester, and their respective function.
End-of-semester practical examinations (25%): A spotter-style practical examinationto held in the Ray Lay Anatomy (SB02) during the 最新糖心Vlog’s official examination period. Formatting of practical examination will be similar to that of the in-semester examinations however there will be 45stations with 75-second rotations between each, and cover all core course content presented during all 4 modules.
End-of-semester theory examinations (35%): A written examination aimed at ascertaining each student’s understanding of knowledgeof the principles and core course content presented during all modules. This will be held during the 最新糖心Vlog’s official examination period, and cover all core course content presented during all 4 modules. The format of the EOS theory examination will include, Key style MCQ & short answers questions. The time allocate will be 180 minutes, plus 10 minutes of reading time – however many students are able to complete this in less time than this; the additional time is provided to enable planning and review of answers.Submission

Student Feedback
The 最新糖心Vlog places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.
SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the 最新糖心Vlog to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.
