Abstarct: The purpose of this study was to determine if a commercially available computer assisted instruction program, Bodyworks, has an effect on the test scores of human gross anatomy students. Twenty six physical therapy students took part in this investigation. There were 13 subjects randomly assigned to the experimental group, which used computer aided instruction, while the remaining 13 students were in the control group. The experimental group used the computer program for approximately six weeks, and both groups were tested after that time period to compare the experimental to the control group test scores. The experimental group test scores were significantly higher than those of the control group, (t = 4.673, alpha = .05). There was no correlation found between the scores of the control group and those of the experimental group, (r = -.3347). Results of an attitude questionnaire administered to the experimental group after the study indicated that the computer program was beneficial in the learning process. However, the program needed to provide more specific information regarding origins and insertions of muscles for the subject of human gross anatomy. In conclusion, it was determined that computer aided instruction may be a useful educational supplement to assist in the learning of human gross anatomy.

These conference proceedings explore the design of pedagogical intervention and learning cultures, the inclusion of socio-emotional support in teaching and policy, transforming technology to support the social fabric of our institutions, and challenging established beliefs about learning. They clarify the complex challenges involved in employing social learning in education and higher education institutions to foster greater understanding and insights, while also avoiding the pitfalls that come with rolling out the concept of “redesigning learning”. The Taylor’s Teaching and Learning Conference has been held at Taylor’s University, Malaysia, since 2006.

This is the second book in the 'Health, Functioning and Technology' series. The focus of this book is on teaching, learning and assessment in rehabilitation education within the African context. The primary contributors to the book are authors from occupational therapy, physiotherapy and speech-language therapy in South Africa. The authors discuss local contextual drivers for renewing rehabilitation professions curricula that support graduates in becoming competent, socially accountable, and dynamic. The foundational element of the chapters in the book is the African context and evidence-informed educational practice. We include the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on teaching, learning, student support and the integration of technology to assist in achieving the goals of the curricula. Through the different themes of transformative learning, curriculum renewal, technology for learning and clinical training key topics are covered on responsive curricula, leadership, interprofessional education, clinical competence, critical consciousness, peer teaching and learning, learning technologies, student support and emergency remote teaching and learning.
