UMES Gross Anatomy Pre-matriculation Preparation Workshop (GAPP Workshop)
- Experience the principal methods by which gross anatomy is taught in most health professional curricula.
- Study the anatomical structure and function of the thorax and lower extremity through lecture, readings, dissection of a cadaver, and the utilization of models, skeletal materials, and videos. Pre-dental students will have the option of studying the face, parotid and temporal regions of the skull instead of the thorax.
- Learn and apply effective and productive study skills and learning methods. A brief discussion of learning and teaching styles will be presented. This will include discussion of study/learning resources, disarticulated skeletons, flash cards, coloring books, and how to use the textbook and atlases.
- Experience typical oral and written quizzes and written and practical examinations on the subject matter.
