Anatomy is a subject notorious for content volume and complexity and students often practise rote learning just to ‘survive’. Assessment can influence how students spend their time. My aim was to intrinsically motivate these students to adopt a deep approach to learning through a modern assessment method: the patchwork text. Students produce small learning tasks bring them to the classroom for peer discussion then rework them. The tasks are submitted as a summative collection accompanied by a reflective narrative – the stitching - explaining where the learning has taken place and how that has influenced their understanding of the subject.
