Teach Me Anatomy Screencast

Introduction

Hello, everyone. My name is Jean-Philippe Desautels, and I have been studying in Naturals sciences at cegep de St-Hyacinthe for three years. This program has different courses like biologic, physics and chemistry that I need to complete for my future career. After I graduate, I want to work in the field of physical therapy. To be honest with you, I don't know if I want to become a physiotherapist or a chiropractor, so that is why I say Physical therapy!

I always as been the type of person that wants to learn more about the things that I like, and that is why I try to find the more efficient solution to help me learn or have better grades.

My goal is to help future students in this field of study to learn about the human body anatomy.

The Quest

The application is call TeachMe Anatomy, and you can easily find it on the Apple Store.

As you can see, the icon of the application is located in the top left corner of the screen. If you click on the icon, it'll bring to the home screen of the application.

In the middle of the screen, you can see a Search button, a Subject button and a Question Bank button. The Question Bank button can only be used if you have a Premium account, but I really don't think that it is necessary to have one.

If you click on the Subject button, you will see different buttons that include a body part for each one. You can scroll to the bottom of the screen to see the different body parts.

Let's make an example that you want to learn about the upper limb of the human body. Click on the Upper Limb button in the bottom left corner of the screen to see all the specific categories about this body part, like the anatomical areas, the bones of the upper limb, the joints of the upper limb, and more. Again, you can scroll to the bottom of the screen to see the different categories.

You can now click in the top left corner on the muscles of the upper limb button to see the different muscles that the upper limb as. To be more specific, you can click on a button, for example, let's click on the Muscles of the Hand button in the bottom right corner of the screen.

You can now see an article that describes in detail every muscle of the hand. As you scroll down the screen, you can see that the article explains the thenar muscles, the hypothenar muscles, the lumbricals, the interossei muscles and other muscles in the palm. You can also see images to help you visualize the different muscles. You can even click on the Images button at the bottom of the screen to see more clearly the images of the article. Swipe to the left to see the different images.

One of the most useful things about this app, is the Quiz button at the bottom of the screen. Each article in this application comes with a little quiz to help you learn or to see if you memorize what you were looking for. You will only be able to use the 3D body section in the bottom right corner of the screen if you have a premium account.

You can now return to the home screen if you click on the navigation button in the top right corner of the screen, and after, the Home Button. This was an example of one human body part, you can do the same thing for the entirety of the human body anatomy. As you can see at the bottom of the screen, there is the latest articles that the application put. So, you could look into them if you are curious. Also, if you want to make a specific research, you can use the search button in the middle of the screen. For example, let's right shoulder and see what we get. You have now access to all the different articles related to the shoulder, you can scroll to the bottom of the screen to see the variety of articles like The Shoulder Joint, The Intrinsic Muscles of the shoulder, The Axillary Nerve, the Anatomical Terms of Movement, The Scapula, and more.
