- Abstract
Human physiology anatomy is studied by first year midwifery students to give students the ability to understand the anatomy and physiology of all body systems related to the female reproductive system. This paper aims to describe the implementation and benefits of learning Anatomy Physiology using the Case Based Learning (CBL) method for first year midwifery students. Reflective writing analysis is done to find out student’s understanding of the relationship between the case and the theory of anatomy and physiology of the female reproductive system. Four issues that are of concern to the students: the length of the postpartum period; breastfeeding problems; mother’s-psychological condition and nutrition fulfillment. Ten out of 13 students are able to describe the client’s problems and the relationship between conditions in the reproductive organs and other organ systems. CBL method can be applied in learning anatomy and physiology for first year midwifery students. The CBL method increases students’ confidence and interest in interacting and exploring health phenomena experienced by clients.
