Learning objectives
1st LEARNING ENPOINT: the student is expected to know the human body structure in its macro- and microscopic aspects, in a clinical perspective, with a special focus on head and neck anatomy.
2nd LEARNING ENPOINT; the student is expected to be able to describe shape, position, relationship, structure vascularization and innervation of the different organs of the human body. The student is supposed to be able to identify individual morphological diversities providing a methodological approach preparatory to the clinical reasoning
3rd LEARNING ENPOINT: the student is expected to be able to develop an anatomical-based thinking and to possess autonomous judgement on the correlation between structure and function.
4th LEARNING ENPOINT: the student is expected to master an anatomical language

Teaching methods
Interactive class lectures. Power point slide will be projected and uploaded weekly on “Elly” platform (https://elly2020.medicina.unipr.it). Slides will be available for Dental Students only (“5027 - ODONTOIATRIA E PROTESI DENTARIA”). Atlas and anatomical models will be utilized too, and, whenever possible, anatomical dissection will be set up.
Assessment methods and criteria
The achievement of the above described learning objective will be verified by an oral exam (the oral exam will cover the three sections - splanchnology, general neuroanatomy and anatomy of stomatognathic apparatus). Communicative skills will be assessed too. The result will be announced immediately after.
In case of the persistence of the health emergency, the exams will be conducted remotely with oral questions, through the Teams platform (guide http://selma.unipr.it/).
Students with SLD / BSE must first contact Le Eli-che: support for students with disabilities, D.S.A., B.E.S. (https://sea.unipr.it/it/servizi/le-eli-che-supporto-studenti-con-disabilita-dsa-bes)
