The intervention group's learning environment was enriched using the micro-learning approach, and the control group's teaching method was conventional. Formative and summative assessments were used to evaluate the students' learning, and the Hermans questionnaire was used to determine achievement motivation.Results: The findings indicated that there was a statistically significant difference between the two intervention and control groups in terms of learning outcomes (P<0.001) and achievement motivation (P=0.042). In addition, there is no significant relationship between gender and grade point average (GPA) factors with achievement motivation (P=0.41, F(3,4)=1.234) and also between gender and GPA factors with learning (P=0.67, F(3, 4)=0.662).Conclusion: The environment enriched with micro-learning can enhance medical students' learning and achievement motivation.}, keywords = {Micro-learning,Gastrointestinal Anatomy,Achievement Motivation,Medical education,Medical student,Hermans Achievement Motivation Questionnaire (HAMQ)}, url = {https://fmej.mums.ac.ir/article_19785.html}, eprint = {https://fmej.mums.ac.ir/article_19785_c952291df3c209b8c1f79272aa8a6da0.pdf} }
