n the modern era smart phone apps decreased face to face teaching time may lead to students making greater use of mobile
apps technologies in their learning. Smartphone apps technologies offer new opportunities to improve anatomy learning.
This study examined the effect of using mobile apps. This is the first study to report on the learning methods and strategies
of anatomy among medical students by using mobile apps and to ascertain if a relationship exists between preferred learning
styles as determined by the validated VARK questionnaire and use of mobile anatomy apps. The majority of the students who
completed the VARK questionnaire were multimodal learners with kinesthetic and visual preferences. Seventy-five percent of
students owned one or more mobile anatomy apps which were used. Most of these students spent less than 30 minutes per week
using them. Top ten mobile anatomy apps owned and recommended by the students
were developed by 3D4Medical. Visual learning preferences were not associated
with time spent using mobile anatomy.
Conclusion
: This study explore that the use of mobile learning app influenced
students’ academic performance and boosted their engagement in the subject. This
study evaluated the effectiveness of a mobile app as a learning tool. Created to better
engage students in lecture content, the app was used to deliver multiple-choice
content-based quizzes directly to students’ personal mobile devices post-lecture and
pre-tutorial. This study evaluated the effectiveness of a mobile app as a learning tool.
