The application at the top of this page (the quiz) shows you a picture of the human skeleton. One bone, or a group of bones is shown highlighted. Your challenge is to fill in the name of this bone on the right side of this page. You will get feedback to show you whether your answer was correct (and some hints when filling in).

Effective study method

There are more than 50 pictures available. If you give correct answers, the program will show you new pictures. Those pictures and names that you have trouble with, will be asked more often. Research has proven that the most effective way of memorizing is by repeating the same information approximately 5 minutes after you memorized the information for the first time. The program will therefore repeat the same questions approximately 5 minutes after they were answered correctly the first time. After the first repetition the interval will be increased.
