Abstract

Teachers have applied the "Hand as Foot" teaching method in anatomy teaching. It helps students understand and remember effectively, triggers students' interest in learning, and stimulates creativity. Guided by the teacher, my classmates and I also attempted to design some simple gestures to show the anatomical structures of the bony labyrinth to facilitate memorization. Here, as a medical student, I am glad to share my ideas with you.

Keywords: Anatomy education; Hand as foot; Teaching method; The bony labyrinth.
