NTU-WAA
NTU-WAA provides detailed anatomical visuals and information to support acquisition and assessment of human anatomy knowledge for nursing students.
Key Features:
- Interactive Anatomical Visuals: Provides detailed anatomical images and information to support self-directed exploration of human anatomy.
- Empirical Evaluation: Demonstrated improvements in anatomy examination performance with reported mean score increases for laboratory midterm (77.20 → 81.80; p = 0.043), laboratory final (59.68 → 80.35; p < 0.001), and theory final (80.85 → 84.33; p = 0.017), and positive feedback from students and teachers.
Scientific Applications:
- Nursing Anatomy Education: Used to bolster understanding and assessment performance in human anatomy courses for nursing students and to complement existing curricula.
Methodology:
Feasibility and effectiveness were evaluated via a comparative study between two cohorts (2018–2019 without access and 2019–2020 with access), analyzing anatomy examination scores and collecting feedback through questionnaires.
