Abstract : Anatomy is a fundamental component of medical and paramedical study. In recent years, technology has presented new opportunities for how anatomy teaching is delivered the nature of supporting resources. Of the various materials used, anatomical videos have become among the most common; they have significantly altered how anatomy education is delivered. However, there is limited research exploring the purpose of using anatomy videos to teach anatomy. Female students attending practical sessions at the medical collages of Najran University were taught anatomy through videos. The student’s academic achievement levels were compared against those students who received anatomy training through traditional methods. The students’ progress was monitored, and particular attention was paid to the progress of those students who were struggling with anatomy. The study into the effect of delivery methods upon academic achievement was run for one semester. Also, qualitative measure of the students’ perceptions of the usefulness of anatomical videos as a learning resource was obtained through a questionnaire. The students’ results obtained from the 2020 academic year, which used anatomical video, was compared against those of students in the 2018 and 2019 years who were taught using conventional methods. The results from the questionnaires indicate that 65% of students reported the anatomical videos to be beneficial to their learning. They found the videos help them understand anatomy better and were useful for revising what had been covered in the practical sessions. The use of videos to teach anatomy is beneficial in supporting the learning of medical and paramedical students. These tools help students learn, as reflected in their academic performance. Based upon our findings, anatomists should include anatomy videos in their teaching programmes.
