Online Interactivity – A Shift towards E-textbook-based Medical Education

Abstract: Textbooks have played the leading role in academic education for centuries and their form has evolved, adapting to the needs of students, teachers and technological possibilities. Advances in technology have caused educators to look for new sources of knowledge development, which students could use inside and outside the classroom. Today’s sophisticated learning tools range from virtual environments to interactive multimedia resources, which can be called e-textbooks. Different types of new educational materia… Show more

“…The humanities course was intended to foster bias mitigation and develop communication skills in students using quizzes on readings, implicit association testing, classroom application exercises, and written reflections on service-learning projects in a team-based learning (TBL) format [ 21 , 22 ]. Our readings on communication and bias in 2020 were from four pertinent books used when the humanities course was in-person [ 7 , 8 ] and, thus, could not involve interactive e-textbooks [ 23 ] if comparison of remote to in-person learning was to remain as legitimate as possible. Similarly, while interactive testing via computers appears to be at least as effective as traditional written evaluation [ 24 ], the provision of feedback using scratch off answer cards fosters information retention better than the same feedback via computers [ 25 ].…”

“…At the same time, it has become highly adequate for ubiquitous teaching [13]. The formal object encompasses the combination of web-based tools with other open educational resources (OER), which altogether contribute to enlarging the availability of the so-called e-textbooks [14], necessary for the blended learning models implemented at these teaching units. The web-based material focuses on enhancing students' spatial reasoning skills for envisaging the actual response of simple structures.…”

“…Considering that electronic resources have undergone a transformation in university teaching and management [12,13]. These include learning management systems, mobile devices, and multimedia and interactive digital resources [14][15][16]. In this sense, educational websites are an effective way to achieve learning results such as checking, applying, putting into practice, analyzing, and even evaluating [17].…”

“…As an example, in the module of Construction Management, students struggled to differentiate between a job site manager and a CEO of a company, showing a lack of overall culture that should have been learnt by reading the adequate books, newspapers, and journals. These physical supports may have changed to e-textbooks, mobile news, or online journals [78]. However, it seems that they have become more accustomed to WhatsApp, Twitter or LinkedIn formats, needing the minimum number of words and simplest possible manners to transmit a message.…”
