RESUMO
After introducing what is understood by teaching innovation and its requirements, various methodologies that can be applied in university and radiological teaching are presented, such as: the flipped classroom focuses on the student's previous study and the teacher's subsequent contribution to resolve doubts or highlight important aspects. Team learning or cooperative teaching allows learning among the students themselves. Problem-based or case-based learning encourages students, in teams or individually, to carry out structured learning based on learning objectives. Teaching based on games or simulation can facilitate knowledge acquisition playfully and practically. Personalized tutoring allows the transmission of knowledge in an individualized way. Various evaluation modalities that can be used for training purposes are also shown.

BACKGROUND: In recent years, the traditional simulation-based medical teaching approach has faced challenges in meeting the requirements of practical emergency medicine education. This study utilized open-source tools and software to develop immersive panoramic videos using virtual reality technology for emergency medical teaching. It aims to investigate the efficacy of this novel teaching methodology. This transformation shifted the focus from physical simulation to virtual simulation in medical education, establishing a metaverse for emergency medical teaching. METHODS: In accordance with the curriculum guidelines, the instructors produced panoramic videos demonstrating procedures such as spinal injury management, humeral fracture with abdominal wall intestinal tube prolapse, head and chest composite injuries, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and tracheal intubation. Using Unity software, a virtual training application for bronchoscopy was developed and integrated into the PICO4 VR all-in-one device to create a metaverse teaching environment. Fourth-year medical undergraduate students were allocated into either an experimental group (n = 26) or a control group (n = 30) based on student IDs. The experimental group received instruction through the metaverse immersive teaching method, while the control group followed the traditional simulation-based medical teaching approach. Both groups participated in theoretical and practical lessons as usual. Subsequently, all students underwent a four-station Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) to assess the effectiveness of the teaching methods based on their performance. Additionally, students in the experimental group provided subjective evaluations to assess their acceptance of the new teaching approach. RESULTS: Before the training commenced, there were no significant statistical differences in the first aid test scores between the experimental and control groups. Following the training, the experimental group outperformed the control group in the four-station OSCE examination, with all P-values being less than 0.05. The satisfaction rate among the experimental group regarding the new teaching method reached 88.46%, reflecting levels of satisfaction and extreme satisfaction. CONCLUSION: The open-source metaverse immersive teaching method has demonstrated a positive impact on enhancing the emergency skills of medical undergraduate students, with a high level of acceptance among students. In comparison to traditional simulated medical teaching methods, this approach requires less time and space, incurring lower costs, and is deemed worthy of wider adoption.

Competency-based physiology and biochemistry education can benefit from the creative integration of imaginative narratives into traditional teaching methods. This paper proposes an innovative model using a pen and palm analogy to visualize enzyme function theories. The pen (substrate) must fit snugly into the palm (enzyme's active site) for catalysis to occur, akin to induced-fit theory. Pressing the pen's top button with the thumb represents the strain needed to convert substrate (pen with nib inside) into product (pen with nub out, ready to write). By leveraging everyday objects creatively, students can enhance their understanding and engagement with enzymatic reactions.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Understanding how enzymes work can be tricky, but a new teaching method using everyday objects like pens and palms helps make it easier. Two main theories explain this: the induced-fit model and the substrate-strain model. To visualize this, imagine a pen as the substrate and your palm as the enzyme. When you hold the pen with your fingers (induced-fit), it's like the enzyme changing shape to hold the substrate. Pressing the pen's button with your thumb (substrate-strain) is like the enzyme applying pressure to make the pen ready to write. This simple analogy helps students better understand these complex processes, making learning more engaging and accessible.

OBJECTIVE: In the surgery-focused field of obstetrics and gynecology (OB-GYN), the development of residents' skills is paramount. This study aims to evaluate the impact of an enhanced Peyton Four-Step Teaching Model on the foundational skill training of first-year OB-GYN residents. METHODS: Utilizing a cohort study design, we assessed 116 first-year residents from the OB-GYN residency program at Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University from June 2021 to June 2023. The 57 residents beginning their training in 2022 were part of the Refined Peyton (RP) group, introduced to the RP method; the 59 residents from 2021 served as the Traditional Teaching-mode (TTM) group, receiving conventional simulation-based instruction. Teaching effectiveness was assessed by comparing theoretical knowledge and skill performance assessments, National Medical Licensing Examination (NMLE) pass rates, direct observation of procedural skills (DOPS) one year post-training, and survey feedback. RESULTS: The theoretical knowledge scores for both groups were comparable at 78.78 ± 4.08 and 78.70 ± 3.83, with no significant difference (P = 0.76). However, the experimental group demonstrated superior performance in skill operation assessments, first-time NMLE pass rates, and DOPS evaluations one year after training [(77.05 ± 5.39) vs. (84.60 ± 5.65), 100.0% (57/57) vs. 86.4% (51/59), and (75.22 ± 3.56) vs. (82.54 ± 3.43)], as well as higher teaching satisfaction scores [(4.63 ± 0.46) vs. (3.92 ± 0.62)], with all differences being statistically significant (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: The refined Peyton Four-Step Teaching Model significantly improves the immediate acquisition and long-term retention of clinical basic skills among OB-GYN residents, enhancing both teaching efficacy and resident satisfaction.

Background: Presently, dental hygiene education is primarily divided into classroom lectures, simulation labs, and clinical experiences. Although the recent surge of curriculum renovation in dental and medical schools centres around enhancing student engagement and active learning, classroom teaching remains teacher-focussed, involving students mainly as passive learners. H5P is an open platform for creating and sharing interactive HTML5 learning content. A large set of H5P content was created and provided to students through the learning management system as supplementary material for an oral biology course in the dental hygiene program at a Canadian university. This study was conducted to evaluate the impact of this interactive H5P content on the students' learning experiences. Methods: The third-year dental hygiene students enrolled in the oral biology course were invited to participate in the study. Anonymised student performance data from the summative exam were analysed, and a survey regarding the student experience with the supplementary H5P content was administered. Results: Students performed better on questions for which H5P supplements were provided. The results from the survey showed satisfaction and perceived benefit of using H5P as supplementary content in didactic lectures. Discussion: The H5P content allowed students to apply knowledge and reproduce understanding, promoting active learning in the didactic oral biology course. Students appreciated the content's interactive nature and expressed willingness to have similar experiences in other courses. Conclusion: Using H5P, interactive learning content can promote self-directed and personalized learning. This open learning platform has the potential to redefine didactic teaching by fostering an active learning environment.
Contexte: À l'heure actuelle, la formation en hygiène dentaire s'appuie principalement sur des exposés en classe, des simulations en laboratoire et des expériences cliniques. Bien que la récente vague de révision des programmes d'études des écoles dentaires et de médecine soit axée sur le renforcement de l'engagement des étudiants et de l'apprentissage actif, le travail en classe reste axé sur l'enseignement par un enseignant : dans ce contexte, les étudiants sont principalement des apprenants passifs. H5P est une plateforme ouverte pour la création et le partage de contenu d'apprentissage interactif au format HTML5. Un vaste ensemble de contenu H5P a été créé et fourni aux étudiants, par l'entremise du système de gestion de l'apprentissage, à titre de matériel supplémentaire pour un cours de biologie buccale dans le cadre du programme d'hygiène dentaire d'une université canadienne. Cette étude a été effectuée pour évaluer les effets de ce contenu H5P interactif sur les expériences d'apprentissage des étudiants. Méthodes: Les étudiants en hygiène dentaire de troisième année inscrits au cours de biologie buccale ont été invités à participer à l'étude. Des données anonymisées sur le rendement des étudiants provenant de l'examen sommatif ont été analysées, et un sondage sur l'expérience des étudiants avec le contenu H5P supplémentaire a été mené. Résultats: Les résultats des étudiants étaient meilleurs pour les questions pour lesquelles du contenu H5P supplémentaire a été fourni. Les résultats de l'enquête ont révélé les avantages perçus de l'utilisation du contenu H5P supplémentaire dans les cours didactiques, ainsi que la satisfaction en la matière. Discussion: Le contenu H5P a permis aux étudiants d'appliquer les connaissances et de reproduire la compréhension, favorisant ainsi l'apprentissage actif dans le cadre des cours didactiques de biologie buccale. Les étudiants ont apprécié la nature interactive du contenu et se sont dits prêts à répéter l'expérience dans le cadre d'autres cours. Conclusion: Grâce à H5P, le contenu d'apprentissage interactif peut favoriser l'apprentissage autodirigé et personnalisé. Cette plateforme d'apprentissage ouverte a le potentiel de redéfinir l'enseignement didactique en favorisant un environnement d'apprentissage actif.
