Teaching Strengths
- Developed several multi-media learning tools - Gross Anatomy, Embryology and Anatomy Museum - to encourage learning from concepts to details and discourage rote learning
- Uses multi-media resources to present the intricacy and complexity of human structure with the use of original visuals that facilitate three dimensional visualisation
- Caters to the varying capabilities and needs of students by simplifying and breaking down the complexity of the study of anatomy into basic content, with structured progression into higher levels of detail
- Focuses on the fundamentals and core elements of human structure, leaving details and labels for students to fill in on their own
- Develops in students a sense of anatomy as an integration of structure with function, paving the way for them to better understand bio-dynamics and functional impairments
