Targeting Student Outcomes Through Implementation of Laboratory Experiences in a First Year Medical Neuroanatomy Course
Get PDFThe pillars of anatomical sciences, including neuroanatomy, have undergone massive shifts in their teaching methodologies in recent years. With the increased enrollment in graduate medical education, as well as the introduction of new technologies, the anatomical sciences have reformed the ways in which future healthcare practitioners learn. Among the challenges to neuroanatomical education have been reliable access to donor specimens, and a decrease in laboratory-based hours. This study evaluated the introduction of voluntary laboratory-based experiences within a first-year medical neuroanatomy course. The first research question evaluated the effect of hands-on laboratory experiences on examination performance between participants and non-participants. There were statistically significant increases in participant subgroup scores compared to the overall class cohort, particularly with Harrogate Group 1. The second research question evaluated the effectiveness of these laboratory sessions, dissection-based and model-based, on examination scores between the two participant groups. There was a noticeable impact on subgroup scores, with previous semester gross anatomy grades and post-lab quiz scores being significant linear model predictors. The third research question addressed self-reported student confidence on all learning objectives for the Med Neuro course. Previous pilot study findings were replicated, leading to a focus on content related to the tracts of the central nervous system and visual pathway

Judicial Interpretations of Emancipation: Comparative Analysis of Antebellum Court Decisions in the Slaveholding States
Get PDFThis article examines judicial interpretations of emancipation laws in the antebellum South, focusing on Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina. It investigates how courts enforced and occasionally challenged legislative restrictions on manumission, revealing the judiciary’s dual role in both preserving and, in rare cases, moderating the institution of slavery. Through a comparative analysis of landmark cases, the study highlights the tension between statutory mandates and judicial discretion, illustrating how legal frameworks reinforced racial hierarchies while occasionally permitting emancipation under narrowly defined circumstances, such as relocation to free states or foreign territories. The article demonstrates that courts consistently prioritized property rights and legislative authority over individual claims to freedom, reflecting broader social and economic imperatives. By exploring these judicial decisions, this analysis sheds light on the legal complexities of slavery, offering insights into the intersection of law, race, and power in antebellum America
