          Abstract

          Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, digital teaching approaches should be used wherever possible. In this article we report on our project for digital teaching and learning of surgical skills.

          The compulsory elective “Intensivkurs Chirurgische Techniken” for medical students starting with semester 5 was designed as a blended learning course. One week before the face-to-face class, the students receive the learning and teaching material online in a Moodle course. In the face-to-face class, live demos of procedures (e.g. performing skin and intestinal sutures) are presented by the teachers. The learners then perform the practical procedures and record themselves with the camera of an iPad. They publish their videos in the Moodle course via an Opencast plugin. The implementation of an annotation tool enables everyone in the Moodle course to add free-text comments to selected parts of the videos (video-assisted feedback and coaching).

          As a result of the pandemic, the face-to-face class is being moved to a digital learning environment. For this purpose, we are extending the existing system with a web conference tool (BigBlueButton).

          Zusammenfassung

          Vor dem Hintergrund der COVID-19-Pandemie sollen Lehrveranstaltungen nach Möglichkeit digital stattfinden. In diesem Beitrag berichten wir über unser Lehrprojekt zum digitalen Lehren und Lernen chirurgischer Fertigkeiten.

          Die Wahlpflichtveranstaltung „Intensivkurs Chirurgische Techniken“ für Medizinstudierende ab dem 5. Semester wurde in einem Blended-Learning-Format konzipiert. Eine Woche vor Beginn der Präsenzphase werden den Studierenden die Lernmaterialien für die Veranstaltung in einem Moodle Kurs zur Verfügung gestellt. In der Präsenzphase werden Übungen zu Haut- und Darmnähten in Live-Demos durch die Dozierenden präsentiert. Anschließend führen die Lernenden die praktischen Übungen durch und zeichnen sich dabei mit der Kamera eines iPad auf. Mithilfe eines Opencast-Plugins veröffentlichen sie ihre Videos im Moodle Kurs. Die Einbindung eines Annotation Tool ermöglicht allen Teilnehmenden im Moodle Kurs einzelne Stellen der Videos mit Freitext zu kommentieren (videogestütztes Feedback und Coaching).

          In Folge der Pandemie soll nun auch die Präsenzphase digital durchgeführt werden. Dafür wird das vorhandene System um eine Webkonferenzlösung (BigBlueButton) erweitert.

          A vision of the use of technology in medical education after the COVID-19 pandemic

          This article was migrated. The article was marked as recommended. Medical education across the world has experienced a major disruptive change as a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic and technology has been rapidly and innovatively used to maintain teaching and learning. The future of medical education is uncertain after the pandemic resolves but several potential future scenarios are discussed to inform current decision-making about the future provision of teaching and learning. The use of emergent technology for education, such as artificial intelligence for adaptive learning and virtual reality, are highly likely to be essential components of the transformative change and the future of medical education. The benefits and challenges of the use of technology in medical education are discussed with the intention of informing all providers on how the changes after the pandemic can have a positive impact on both educators and students across the world.
