Description
Summary:<p dir="ltr">The 'Anatomy of the Cranial Nerves' is a game-based learning neuroanatomy resource that is aimed to be used as a self-directed learning resource to revise the neuroanatomy of the cranial nerves. Even though this is a game-based learning resource, it does not use score points, as this is a resource that the user will use at their self-pace to improve their own knowledge and learning experience.</p><h2>Anatomy of the Cranial Nerves</h2><p dir="ltr">This neuroanatomy resource consists of four parts that aim to help the user at different stages of their learning of the neuroanatomy of the cranial nerves:</p><h3>Part 1: Crack the Cues, Identify the Cranial Nerve</h3><p dir="ltr">Part 1 aims to help the user recall the names of the 12 pairs of cranial nerves. There is a card for each cranial nerve, and each card consists of seven cues that will help the user identify the cranial nerve of interest.</p><h3>Part 2: Think Outside the Box - Describe the Cranial Nerve: Cues Are Off Limits</h3><p dir="ltr">Part 2 aims to challenge the user by asking them to describe the cranial nerve of interest without using the seven cues present on each card for each cranial nerve.</p><h3>Part 3: Master the Cranial Nerve, Dive into its Structural, Functional and Clinical Neuroanatomy</h3><p dir="ltr">Part 3 aims to test the user predominantly on their structural and functional knowledge of the cranial nerves. For each cranial nerve there are 5 questions, one of them is related to the clinical neuroanatomy of the cranial nerve of interest.</p><h3>Part 4: Boost your Knowledge - Explore the Cranial Nerves Involved in the Parasympathetic Nervous System</h3><p dir="ltr">Part 4 aims to test the user on their knowledge on the four cranial nerves that contain a parasympathetic functional component.</p><p dir="ltr">It is recommended that users download this resource on a laptop to ensure the functionality of the navigation buttons.</p><p dir="ltr"><b>Accessibility:</b> The intention is to adapt this resource in future to make it more accessible to those using assistive technology.
