“For a while now, we have been trying to find the perfect laboratory book to supplement our teaching in the human anatomy lab, but were not having luck.” Those are the words ofKevin Cole, Ph.D.和运动学副教授，他们准确地描述了我们对公开和商业上可获得的《人体解剖学》工作手册的共同关注和哀叹。As instructors for the Hope CollegeDepartment of Kinesiology’s Human Anatomy course, Dr. Cole and I have been experimenting for several years with multiple texts for our lab instruction, but never felt comfortable with any of them. It was only after COVID-19 forced us into virtual instruction during the Spring and May Term semesters of 2020 that we found a solution.
In March of 2020, COVID-19 forced us to quickly transition into an online teaching format. In addition to producing and recording our lectures online, we searched for a viable alternative to replace our cadaver lab instruction. We were aware of a smartphone/tablet app titledVisibleBody并迅速转变为使用它来提供类似于虚拟实验室的人类解剖学探索的机会。“可见身体”应用程序具备虚拟操作所有主要器官系统结构的能力，就像学生在尸体实验室中可能体验到的那样。当然，这是不一样的，但它比看图片在教科书的页面。应用程序的增强现实部分，以及无限定位、操作和查看应用程序中描述的结构的能力，使我们满足课程的目标，同时过渡到一种新的教学方式。学生们的反馈是积极的，在我们五月学期的课上，我们发现考试的表现展示了知识的获得和理解类似于面对面的指导。似乎通过我们录制讲座的工作和使用Visible Body应用程序，我们的学习目标仍然得到了满足，即使切换到在线学习。
During our co-taught Human Anatomy May Term course, Dr. Cole and I explored ways to augment the “seek, find, memorize, and know” mentality of our lab. We used structured exploration and critical thinking exercises within the Visible Body app for various class assignments and learning activities. It was after this experience that we began to think of actually addressing our laboratory workbook concerns via creating our own. After thinking about it, we decided that the best way to obtain what we wanted for Hope College students was to do it ourselves. Therefore, work began in earnest over the summer, and two months and 200 pages later, we did it. As Cole states: “Writing our own workbook allowed us to tailor it exactly to our needs and our students’ needs. We also really like that we were able to fully illustrate the text and to integrate the use of a virtual anatomy application along with our in-class cadavers and models.”

As a faculty member and “elder statesman” of the group, I thought my experiences and time spent in the church or classroom would be called upon often during our time together. I believed that teaching or imparting whatever wisdom someone might think I possess was something I would be expected to do. I thought that was a role that I was to fill. However, God had other plans and it became quickly apparent that His plans were not for me to teach but for me to
circumstances and each other for what and who they are. I was shown how to enthusiastically embrace the fact that life is a journey and it is more important to keep moving than feeling sorry for ourselves or getting stuck and dwelling on the failures or disappointments.
one occasion for how well prepared I felt by my Hope College undergraduate degrees (Exercise Science and Spanish). Any statistic can speak to the small class sizes at Hope College, which for me created a safe environment to foster my intellectual curiosity and integrity. But what statistics can’t show you is how exceptional the professors are—all of whom learned my name, even in the “larger” lecture halls. Having this personal connection with the professors encouraged me to succeed. I was not just another face in the crowd. From these relationships came powerful role models, lofty expectations, and personalized letters of recommendation that defied the generic mold. I’m sure these further enabled my success. It’s no wonder all the places Hope students have gone.
