Summary

Resin printing is an emerging technology with a wide array of applications. This research seeks to assess the practicality of incorporating 3D resin printed models into anatomy education while investigating how fractured models impact students' decision-making and quiz scores.

Interventions

OTHER

Clinical Anatomical Education with Fractured Bone Models

Participants will undergo a 2-hour training session, consisting of 60 minutes of theory and 60 minutes of practice. The theoretical lesson, supported by 2D images illustrating wrist anatomy, types of fractures, and rehabilitation based on fracture type, will be simultaneously delivered to both groups. Following this, the practical group will receive a 60-minute hands-on session using 3D-printed digital models of radius and ulna fractures. These training sessions will be scheduled in the morning hours, on a day when students have no other classes between 9 am and 12 pm, to minimize mental fatigue and exhaustion. In the practical session, anatomical structures, their relationships, and arrangements will be demonstrated to the practice group using a model of a fractured wrist.

Clinical Anatomical Education with Standard Bone Models

Participants will undergo a 2-hour training session, consisting of 60 minutes of theory and 60 minutes of practice. The theoretical lesson, supported by 2D images illustrating wrist anatomy, types of fractures, and rehabilitation based on fracture type, will be simultaneously delivered to both groups. Following this, the practical group will receive a 60-minute hands-on session using 3D-printed digital models of radius and ulna fractures. These training sessions will be scheduled in the morning hours, on a day when students have no other classes between 9 am and 12 pm, to minimize mental fatigue and exhaustion. The control group will receive the same practical session using a standard anatomical model.
