Η διδασκαλία του μαθήματος γίνεται καταρχήν με διαλέξεις που συνοδεύονται από τη χρήση εποπτικού υλικού σε μορφή power point. Από το πρώτο μάθημα δίνονται τα θέματα των εργασιών που θα πρέπει να αναπτύξουν οι φοιτητές κατα τη διάρκεια του εξαμήνου. Παράλληλα προτείνεται βασική βιβλιογραφία μαζί με συνιστώμενη βιβλιογραφία για επιπρόσθετη αναζήτηση πληροφοριών. Τα μαθήματα αλλά και τα άρθρα που θα συζητηθούν στα ειδικά σεμινάρια (tutorials) στέλνωνται στους φοιτητές μέσω του Dropbox. Στα πλαίσια του συγκεκριμένου μαθήματος οργανώνεται εργαστήριο για την εξοικείωση των φοιτητών με την καταγραφή των σκελετικών καταλοίπων.

Η αξιολόγηση του μαθήματος βασίζεται στη συμμετοχή των φοιτητών στη γενική συζήτηση, παρουσίαση άρθρων και στη συγγραφή εργασίας με θέμα της επιλογής τους.
