The Satisfaction levels of teaching by different modalities differ and is different in case of different teachers. We have tried to have the Perspective from Experts in Anatomy as to what modality they prefer for different subtopics. In the same Context The Faculty and the staff of our College in which Each teacher was asked about the three most effective methods of teaching different modalities based on their experience and expertise.
