| Abstract: | Medical students at the University of Hong Kong learn about the development of the gastrointestinal tract using the “midgut‐rotation apron” worn by their gross anatomy instructor. The midgut, represented by a tube attached to the apron, can be pulled out and manipulated to simulate the elongation and rotation of the midgut. In this issue of ASE, Dr. Lap Ki Chan shares his experiences using this and other simple tools to promote active learning during gross anatomy sessions. |
