Filter by:The investigators have planned a randomized study, examining the effect of self-directed training in groups vs. individual training on trainees' acquisitions of open surgical skills. Eighty participants who signed up for a pre-existing simulation-based course in basic open surgical skills will be randomized to practice either in pairs or individually during the course. Participants open surgical skills will be tested on a simulated skin model before and after the course. The investigators hypothesis is that dyad training will enhance self-directed learning in open surgical skills.
