What lessons were learned?Major positive themes included the benefit of the 'immersive', 'clear' and 'step-inside 3D' experience, the helpfulness of guided exploration and modules, and memorability.Negative themes included the small field of vision, fine motor control problems and desire for a more detailed anatomical model.A student who selfidentified as 'having more difficulty with special intelligence' reported that AR was the 'single most helpful anatomical learning tool I have used'.In this limited and uncontrolled sample, ARenhanced teaching of neuroanatomy increased student knowledge and was highly popular.Major challenges for sustaining the project include identifying dedicated space for AR education, supporting educational and IT staffing for these sessions, and scaling up capacity by identifying capital for the devices and software.Based on these preliminary data, AR could become a useful supplementary resource for neuroanatomy students.
