Learning objectives
1 Knowledge and understanding
Systematic description of regional anatomy and morphology of human body, its macro and microscopic features in the different periods of life, organogenesis and phases of development
2 Applying knowledge and understanding
This knowledge must be applied to simple clinical reasoning (case studies)
3 Making judgements
Students are expected to be able to follow a reasonement of functional anatomy
4 Communication skills
Students are expected to use a proper anatomical language
5 Learning skills
Students are expected to be able to summarize a technical text

Teaching methods
Class lectures, dissections. Practical lesson of microscopic anatomy and direct experience on anatomical models.
Assessment methods and criteria
The assessment of the achievement of the objectives of the course consists in an oral examination. Through questions about the contents of the course the student preparation will be tested. Exams will specifically consist of 2 phases, as follows. Phase 1: identification and description of two microscopy slides; the student must recognize and describe both slides. Phase 2: oral examination with the evaluation of the knowledge of anatomy of digestive, reproductive and endocrine systems, neuroanatomy and topographic anatomy. The student must be successful in both phases, as indicated.
