Overview

Experimental analysis shows VR-based training improves engagement and neuroanatomy knowledge in students, suggesting a shift from traditional methods.

Key Points

  • VR-based training improves neuroanatomy learning outcomes compared to traditional teaching methods, particularly when introduced early.
  • Students receiving VR sessions had mean scores of 14.1 compared to 10.3 in traditional groups, showing significant improvement.
  • The study employed a mixed-effects linear model to analyze knowledge acquisition among 117 undergraduate medical students.
  • These findings support integrating VR into medical curricula to enhance engagement and retention, indicating its potential in surgical education.
