Blackboard drawing is the traditional and still widely learned method for anatomy teachers. However, for practical reasons, more and more lessons are done using slide shows. New digital learning tools are developed to create a more attractive teaching method. The objective of this study was to compare the use of graphic tablet live drawing versus slide shows.
Sixty-five second-year students of the Faculty of Medicine participated in this study during their first semester of 2013-2014 academic year. The selected lecture dealt about neuroanatomy; two brain sections were taught: median sagittal and transverse. The sagittal section was presented via a slide show. The transverse section was taught using a graphics tablet using drawing software. Students were evaluated three times: before the lecture, immediately after the lecture and 8 weeks later. Means were compared using a t-test.
Scores were significantly higher immediately after the lecture and 8 weeks later tests in comparing the transverse section (using the graphics tablet) versus the sagittal section (using PowerPoint). Student satisfaction regarding the use of the tablet was high.
The graphics tablet is a usable and efficient drawing tool in anatomy teaching. This tool requires a specific teacher training and preparation.
黑板绘图是解剖学教师传统且仍被广泛采用的教学方法。然而，出于实际原因，越来越多的课程开始使用幻灯片。新的数字学习工具不断涌现，以创造更具吸引力的教学方法。本研究的目的是比较使用数位绘图板实时绘图与幻灯片的效果。
65名医学院二年级学生在2013 - 2014学年第一学期参与了本研究。所选讲座内容为神经解剖学；讲解了两个脑部切片：正中矢状面和横断面。矢状面切片通过幻灯片展示。横断面切片则使用绘图软件通过数位绘图板进行讲解。对学生进行了三次评估：讲座前、讲座结束后立即进行以及8周后。采用t检验比较平均值。
在比较横断面（使用数位绘图板）和矢状面（使用PowerPoint）时，讲座结束后立即进行的测试以及8周后的测试成绩显著更高。学生对使用数位绘图板的满意度很高。
数位绘图板在解剖学教学中是一种实用且高效的绘图工具。该工具需要教师进行特定的培训和准备。
