RESUMEN
For quite some time, the development and implementation of online teaching has been a controversial issue in surgical education for the degree in medicine. This has become more important with the progression of digitalisation and not least as a result of the current pandemic. It is becoming increasingly urgent to establish the opportunities and limits of online teaching, which has already proved successful under the current developmental pressure, and there are promising concepts. This article addresses the framework and the various online teaching formats in surgery, and illustrates the interplay between technical feasibility, practical experience, and didactic objectives.

Offering a full-day program including practical courses and the possibility of direct exchange between medical students and university teachers, the "Göttinger Aufschneidertag" was launched to generate enthusiasm for surgery. Workshops comprising four surgical disciplines enable participants to gain insight into the craft of surgery. The program aims to create interest in surgery among medical students at an early point of their studies and to make them enjoy their profession.
