Teaching Technology with Technology: Computer Assisted Lessons in the Medical School - the First Italian Experience in Nephrology and Dialysis
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ARTIFICIAL ORGANS(2002)
摘要
Background Dialysis is often neglected in academic teaching. At the University of Torino, Italy, teaching Nephrology (4 th year of Medical School) consists of 21 hours of formal lessons, 10 hours/student of interactive lessons (4/10 dedicated to dialysis) and 10 optional lessons (3 regarding dialysis). Interactive and optional lessons widely employ computer assisted teaching. Aim of the study was to evaluate student satisfaction on this approach. Methods Student satisfaction was assessed on 4 sample lessons (166 students), by two short dedicated questionnaires (0–10 scale, open questions). Results High scores were given to the dialysis lessons (median 8/10). Computer assisted interface (median 8/10, range 6–10) was of help in check of knowledge in real time (86%), enhancing participation (61%); 62% suggest extending this experience to selected courses, 38% to all. Conclusions Medical students consider dialysis an important part of the academic teaching of Nephrology; new interfaces may help to enhance student satisfaction.
