About this trial
Resin printing is an emerging technology with a wide array of applications. This research seeks to assess the practicality of incorporating 3D resin printed models into anatomy education while investigating how fractured models impact students' decision-making and quiz scores.

Treatments tested in this trial
Clinical Anatomical Education with Fractured Bone Models
Other interventionParticipants will undergo a 2-hour training session, consisting of 60 minutes of theory and 60 minutes of practice. The theoretical lesson, supported by 2D images illustrating wrist anatomy, types of fractures, and rehabilitation based on fracture type, will be simultaneously delivered to both groups. Following this, the practical group will receive a 60-minute hands-on session using 3D-printed digital models of radius and ulna fractures. These training sessions will be scheduled in the morning hours, on a day when students have no other classes between 9 am and 12 pm, to minimize mental fatigue and exhaustion. In the practical session, anatomical structures, their relationships, and arrangements will be demonstrated to the practice group using a model of a fractured wrist.
Clinical Anatomical Education with Standard Bone Models
Other interventionParticipants will undergo a 2-hour training session, consisting of 60 minutes of theory and 60 minutes of practice. The theoretical lesson, supported by 2D images illustrating wrist anatomy, types of fractures, and rehabilitation based on fracture type, will be simultaneously delivered to both groups. Following this, the practical group will receive a 60-minute hands-on session using 3D-printed digital models of radius and ulna fractures. These training sessions will be scheduled in the morning hours, on a day when students have no other classes between 9 am and 12 pm, to minimize mental fatigue and exhaustion. The control group will receive the same practical session using a standard anatomical model.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
1
Clinical Test
A 25-question multiple choice questions test will be employed to assess students' anatomical knowledge and their decision-making capabilities for the rehabilitation program. The test will be prepared according to Bloom's taxonomy and will consist of both multiple-choice and open-ended questions. Total test time wil lbe 60 minutes and scores will be recorded as percentages.
Time frame
one hourSecondary outcomes
1
Academic Motivation
Academic Motivation Scale test taking motivation questionnaire will be used to assess participants' motivations. This scale, consisting of 22 questions and 7 subscales, evaluates amotivation, as well as internal and external motivation.
Time frame
one hour2
Test Anxiety Inventory
To examine whether there is a change in the level of anxiety experienced by students during the exam, a 5-question short version of Test Anxiety Inventory will be used. The test includes sections related to ease, comfort associated with learning, and alignment of exam questions with the course.
Time frame
one hour3
Enjoyment and Ease of Use Assessment
Participants will fill out a feedback questionnaire regarding the learning instruments using visual analogue scale.
