          Abstract

          Introducción. La enseñanza de la ginecología y obstetricia abarca teoría y práctica, que tradicionalmente se impartieron presencialmente, situación que ha cambiado en 2020 debido a la pandemia de COVID-19. Material y métodos. Desarrollamos una herramienta docente basada en tecnologías de la información y la comunicación. AEGO es un asistente para la enseñanza de la ginecoobstetricia: clases filmadas durante consultas reales, técnicas semiológicas y sesiones de colposcopia, juego serio de visitas de control de embarazo, incluyendo procedimientos diagnósticos ginecoobstétricos y una encuesta de satisfacción. Resultados. El análisis de la encuesta realizada a 169 estudiantes indica que los temas que suscitaron mayor interés fueron las maniobras semiológicas y la consulta ginecológica. La encuesta evaluó la percepción de los estudiantes sobre la herramienta AEGO, que se evaluó en semiología obstétrica, con un 88% de satisfacción; semiología ginecológica, con un 95%; semiología en general, con un 80%; y manejo del parto, con un 95%. Preguntados sobre la equivalencia entre la enseñanza por AEGO y la enseñanza tradicional del curso a distancia instaurado a raíz de la pandemia, solamente el 7% de los estudiantes juzgó AEGO como insuficiente. En el ejemplo de metrorragias, los estudiantes juzgaron AEGO como equivalente a lo tradicional (47%) o complementario (44%). En cuanto a la prevención del cáncer genitomamario, el 43% consideró AEGO equivalente a la enseñanza 'presencial a distancia por zoom' y el 47% lo definió como complementario. Conclusión. AEGO es una herramienta muy útil para la enseñanza de la ginecología y la obstetricia, y tiene, potencialmente, la capacidad de incrementar los temas que se van a enseñar.

          Introduction. The teaching of gynecology and obstetrics encompasses theory and practice were traditionally taught in presence, a situation that has changed in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Material and methods. We developed a teaching tool based on information and communication technologies. AEGO is an assistant for the teaching of gynecoobstetrics: filmed classes during real consultations, semiological techniques and colposcopy sessions, serious set of pregnancy control visits, including gyneco-obstetric diagnostic procedures and a satisfaction survey. Results. The analysis of the survey of 169 students indicates: the topics that aroused the greatest interest were semiological maneuvers and gynecological consultation. The survey evaluated the students' perception of the AEGO tool that was evaluated in obstetric semiology with 88% satisfaction, gynecological semiology with 95%, semiology in general 80% and delivery management 95%. Asked about the equivalence between teaching by AEGO and the traditional teaching of the distance course established as a result of the pandemic, only 7% of students judged AEGO as insufficient. In the example of metrorrhagias, students judged AEGO as equivalent to traditional (47%) or complementary (44%). Regarding the prevention of genito-breast cancer, 43% considered AEGO equivalent to 'face-to-face distance learning by zoom' and 47% defined it as complementary. Conclusion. AEGO is a very useful tool for the teaching of gynecology and obstetrics and potentially has the ability to increase the topics to be taught

          Perceptions of medical students towards online teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic: a national cross-sectional survey of 2721 UK medical students

          Objectives To investigate perceptions of medical students on the role of online teaching in facilitating medical education during the COVID-19 pandemic. Design Cross-sectional, online national survey. Setting Responses collected online from 4th May 2020 to 11th May 2020 across 40 UK medical schools. Participants Medical students across all years from UK-registered medical schools. Main outcome measures The uses, experiences, perceived benefits and barriers of online teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic. Results 2721 medical students across 39 medical schools responded. Medical schools adapted to the pandemic in different ways. The changes included the development of new distance-learning platforms on which content was released, remote delivery of lectures using platforms and the use of question banks and other online active recall resources. A significant difference was found between time spent on online platforms before and during COVID-19, with 7.35% students before versus 23.56% students during the pandemic spending >15 hours per week (p<0.05). The greatest perceived benefits of online teaching platforms included their flexibility. Whereas the commonly perceived barriers to using online teaching platforms included family distraction (26.76%) and poor internet connection (21.53%). Conclusions Online teaching has enabled the continuation of medical education during these unprecedented times. Moving forward from this pandemic, in order to maximise the benefits of both face-to-face and online teaching and to improve the efficacy of medical education in the future, we suggest medical schools resort to teaching formats such as team-based/problem-based learning. This uses online teaching platforms allowing students to digest information in their own time but also allows students to then constructively discuss this material with peers. It has also been shown to be effective in terms of achieving learning outcomes. Beyond COVID-19, we anticipate further incorporation of online teaching methods within traditional medical education. This may accompany the observed shift in medical practice towards virtual consultations.

            Using Technology to Meet the Challenges of Medical Education.

            Medical education is rapidly changing, influenced by many factors including the changing health care environment, the changing role of the physician, altered societal expectations, rapidly changing medical science, and the diversity of pedagogical techniques. Changes in societal expectations put patient safety in the forefront, and raises the ethical issues of learning interactions and procedures on live patients, with the long-standing teaching method of "see one, do one, teach one" no longer acceptable. The educational goals of using technology in medical education include facilitating basic knowledge acquisition, improving decision making, enhancement of perceptual variation, improving skill coordination, practicing for rare or critical events, learning team training, and improving psychomotor skills. Different technologies can address these goals. Technologies such as podcasts and videos with flipped classrooms, mobile devices with apps, video games, simulations (part-time trainers, integrated simulators, virtual reality), and wearable devices (google glass) are some of the techniques available to address the changing educational environment. This article presents how the use of technologies can provide the infrastructure and basis for addressing many of the challenges in providing medical education for the future.

              Perception of Technology-Enhanced Learning by Medical Students: an Integrative Review.

              This review aims to explore the perception of technology-enhanced learning by medical students. From the initial 2947 records found, 38 studies from journals indexed in the Web of Science database were included after screening. Several main topics were isolated, based on a thematic analysis: student's attitude towards e-learning and modern technologies in medical education; social networks, video, and mobile devices as information source and communication tool; and barriers to the use of technologies in medical education. The results have shown that a positive attitude towards technologies in medical education and learning is prevalent among students. The popularity of blended learning was confirmed.
