Learning objectives

The learners will be able to accurately describe the anatomy of the external ear, middle ear, and inner ear, including their individual structures and functions.
The learners will gain the ability to elaborate on the various muscles of the middle ear, detailing their unique roles and implications on ear function.
The learners will develop knowledge on the structure and role of the vestibular system, gaining understanding on how it contributes to balance and spatial orientation.
The learners will understand the features of a healthy tympanic membrane, enabling them to compare it against abnormalities in a clinical setting.
The learners will acquire a comprehensive understanding of the roles and functions of the external, middle, and inner ear in sound transduction, including the auditory pathways and the mechanisms for encoding sound frequency.
