koekaytto_eaineisto

An@tomedia is a unique way to learn about the anatomy of the human body. It is a comprehensive, self-paced learning program that explores anatomy from four different perspectives. These perspectives teach you how the body is constructed (from regions and systems) and how you can deconstruct the body (with dissection and imaging techniques).

Four perspectives:

Regions: includes surface and functional anatomy
Systems: includes conceptual and clinical anatomy
Dissection: includes practical procedures and post-mortem
Imaging: includes sectional and endoscopic anatomy

Get Started:

Access anatomedia from http://anatomediaonline.com/ and click on “Launch An@tomedia” to start learning.

An@tomedia provides:

•detailed serial dissections of real human bodies
•coloured overlays of individual structures
•multiple perspectives to explore anatomy and compare
•flexibility to choose your approach, rate, sequence and depth of learning
•interactive text, labels and clinical questions
•new concepts in anatomy and relevant clinical applications
•capacity to ‘build’ systems, ‘map’ regions, ‘dissect’ layers and ‘trace’ images
•a self learning resource with a solid educational basis
•has a simple and consistent navigation system

Giving Feedback is a Win-Win! Library’s Customer Survey Now!

Customers of the Helsinki University Library have one week left to respond to the customer survey. The survey is intended to determine what the Library’s customers think about the current library services and what they would like to see improved.

Link to the English Survey: bit.ly/HULibCustomerSurvey

Hulib asiakaskysely

According to Service Director Kirsi Luukkanen, the survey is very useful for the Library, which will then be able to focus its resources on the services which its customers believe should be improved. In past years, the attainability and findability of electronic resources has been a particular focus. The number of electronic books has doubled, and their use has nearly tripled over the past few years.

This year, the Library hopes to gain more feedback on the services of the Library which support research work. “We are asking our customers what they think about our services relating to research data, open publishing and the evaluation of research,” says Luukkanen, hoping that as many researchers as possible take the survey.
