Unit description
This is the second of two on line units that build upon the basic anatomy taught in undergraduate medical programs. The gross anatomy of the human body is revised with an emphasis on clinically oriented and applied anatomy through full body dissection. Discussion of relevant embryology is also included. The unit is delivered via the university iLearn platform and activities are set for students to complete, with follow up quizzes that allow formative self assessment. Topic areas covered include; the anatomy of the central nervous system, thorax, abdomen and pelvis. Anatomy 2 is designed to prepare students for the level of anatomical knowledge required for the intensive whole body dissection unit Anatomy 3.

Delivery and Resources
You will build up your anatomical competencies around several key learning outcomes within this online unit.
You will be encouraged to use materials and resources provided on iLearn, access third party online information and read relevant chapters in prescribed books. To facilitate this process online quizzes and embedded questions will be used as a tool for self-evaluation and self-direction throughout.

PG - Critical, Analytical and Integrative Thinking
Our postgraduates will be capable of utilising and reflecting on prior knowledge and experience, of applying higher level critical thinking skills, and of integrating and synthesising learning and knowledge from a range of sources and environments. A characteristic of this form of thinking is the generation of new, professionally oriented knowledge through personal or group-based critique of practice and theory.
