Positive Assessment Experience
|
| Usefulness |
“A potentially very useful way of understanding” “Can see its real practical use and a good ease of learning” “Extremely useful! Can't wait till it becomes more commercial” “Good for formative assessment with library based HoloLens” “Has potential, especially in small cohorts. Logistics need to be addressed”
|
| Effectiveness |
“Good for allowing a variety of questions on a single specimen” “Easy to test multiple aspects of anatomy quickly with easy switching between questions” “Allows mixture of functional and gross anatomical questions”
|
| Enjoyment |
“Interactive and enjoying” “Fun. Didn't smell like cadaver” “An interesting and potentially very rewarding experience” “I am very pleased with this kind of assessment in the future”
|
|
Technical Innovation
|
| Novelty |
“Novel and engaging” “Really cool way of assessing” “I liked the novelty of it” “Very innovative and useful way to view anatomy”
|
| Three‐dimensional (3D) Visualization |
“I liked the 3 dimensions offered by the glasses and app” “I like the interactivity aspect and the fact that the anatomy was easy to visualize, something which is lacking through 2D textbook teaching and revision at the moment” “For me the depth perspective is very important. This is not possible from books”
|
| Virtual Dissection |
“Easy separation of structures and reset in space for learning is possible in HoloLens but not on a cadaver” “Virtual dissection is possible. Also the multiple viewing angles are easier compared to Cadaver” “Deep structures in particular are more accessible” “I liked being able to add/remove layers and highlight whole muscles”
|
| Dynamic Exploration |
“Liked being able to walk around object freely” “How you could move around and see it in different angles was great” “Overall it was easy to use, being able to walk around the limb was useful as it re‐created the experience of a real limb exam”
|
|
Software Difficulties
|
| Practical Issues |
“Clean interface, easy to strip items and look from multiple angles” “Very clear and easy to me. Sometimes frustrating (couldn't click on nerves)” “It was difficult to highlight smaller landmarks (nerves/blood vessels) compare to larger ones (muscles/bones)”
|
| Technical Issues |
“Overall positive. More experience with software would improve process” “Crashed during assessment ‐ might affect confidence in exam” “I think in concept HoloLens would be useful in ensuring sound anatomical, knowledge, however, at the moment the technical difficulties and the anxieties these would induce in an exam are not favorable”
