Filter by:The academic training of French postgraduate students in general practice (E3CMG) is facing a challenge due to the increasing gap between the number of students and the available teaching hours. To accommodate the growing number of students, asynchronous acquisition of knowledge prior to a reduced face-to-face teaching would maintain the capacity to provide socio-constructivist teaching useful for developing problem-solving skills (i.e. thesis design and feasibility assessment). The main objective of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the effect of hybrid versus face-to-face socio-constructivist teaching on French E3CMG course assessment and evaluation.
This study will focus on exploring the experiential differences between virtual standardized patients and physical standardized patients, gathering feedback through questionnaires and brief interviews. Standardized patients have been widely used in medical education and physician licensing exams in Taiwan for over 15 years. With the rise of technology-enhanced medical education, it is necessary to reexamine the professional attributes and identification of standardized patients and explore the implementation of virtual standardized patient systems. The research aims to reshape the professional identity of standardized patients, identify necessary attributes and competencies, and establish a virtual standardized patient system to assess medical students' acceptance and learning outcomes.
This study addresses the effectiveness of a smartphone application to improve academic performance among medical students. Participants will be randomised to receive an application developed by a team of physicians and engineers, designed to review key concepts in internal medicine and its subspecialties. The primary outcome will be the number of correct answers in a multiple choice test 4 weeks after randomisation.
