The view of medical students on the anatomy course given by distance education during Covid-19 pandemic

Öz:

Objectives: The Covid-19 pandemic has caused serious problems all around the world. Face-to-face education in universities had shifted to the distance learning including medical schools. Our aim in this study was to understand the problemsfaced by medical students during pandemic period, as well as to determine the possible benefits of distance learning througha web-based questionnaire system, and to compare it with face-to-face learning. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted with a structured internet-based questionnaire. The sample of the study consists of 335 medical students who volunteered to participate in the study. The students took the anatomy course remotely during the Covid-19 and had access to the internet-based questionnaire. Results: Medical students thought that the online theoretical and practical anatomy lectures were not sufficient for their medical profession. Most of the students were opposed to providing practical lectures in the form of distance learning. Students werenot satisfied with the anatomy lectures they took during this period. Conclusion: This study showed that the medical students did not look positively towards distance learning. Further studiesshould be conducted to assess the effectiveness of various distance learning strategies for better anatomy education.
