“…In a recent study, a high demand for additional instruction and teaching content especially for audio-material and videos is reported [ 17 ]. With the opportunity to ask questions and receive immediate response, in this study, the participation was even more interactive compared to passive viewing of recorded videos only.…”

“…Future learning concepts should be able to offer the opportunity to be used digital, mobile and accessible at any time. Although classic learning methods such as lectures and practical courses cannot entirely be replaced by electronic media, they are increasingly used in combination with each other [ 17 , 22 ]. The presented setup has great potential, for future application even after the Covid-19 pandemic.…”

Background Attendance teaching is the predominant teaching method at universities but needs to be questioned in the context of digital transformation. This study establishes and evaluates a method to accomplish electronic learning to supplement traditional attendance courses. Materials and methods Surgery was transmitted in real-time conditions via an online live stream from the surgical theater. Visualization was transferred from a fully digital surgical microscope, an endoscope or an environmental camera in high definition quality. Students were able to participate at home from their personal computer. After following the surgery, they participated in an online-evaluation. Results A total of 65 students participated in the live stream. The majority of students (61.54%) indicated a significant subjective increase in knowledge after participation. The majority of students (53.85%) indicated that live surgeries should be offered as a permanent component in addition to classroom teaching. Likewise, a broader offer was desired by many students (63.08%). Conclusions Live streaming of surgery is a promising approach as an alternative or supplement to traditional attendance teaching. An expansion of digital teaching can be explicitly supported on the basis of this study.

“…One survey-based study sent to Otolaryngology residents found that there is a high demand for structured e-learning platforms to help prepare for examinations and to improve clinical and surgical skills in place of traditional textbooks. 12 A web-based curriculum administered to radiology residents consisting of interactive online learning modules, electronic flashcards, and quizzes was feasible to create and perceived by residents as a useful resource. 13 Similar web-based curriculum for the medical student or surgical resident could be tailored toward identification of important and often incidental physical exam findings.…”

Ability to Identify External Ear Deformities and Normal External Ear Anatomy Based on Year and Specialty of Medical Training

The aim of this study was to analyze a potential association between resident training level/specialty type and correct identification of external ear deformities/external ear anatomy. A Qualtrics survey was distributed via email to all pertinent residency programs in the United States. The survey captured specialty type (Otolaryngology, Pediatrics, and Plastic Surgery) and level of training (PGY 1-2 and PGY 3+). The assessment asked residents to identify 10 clinically relevant external ear deformities and 10 normal pinna anatomic subunits. Chi-square tests were used to examine the association between the level of training/specialty type and performance on individual survey items. To examine group performance on overall mean scores of the external ear deformity/external ear anatomy survey, a t-test and factorial analysis of variance (ANOVA) were used. Responses from 105 residents were analyzed. Senior residents (PGY 3+) performed significantly better in correctly identifying Microtia Grade 3, Question Mark ear, and Cryptotia as compared to junior residents (PGY 1-2). Senior residents performed significantly better in the identification of external ear deformities ( P = .002) and normal pinna anatomical subunits ( P < .001). Otolaryngology and Plastic Surgery residents performed significantly better in the identification of external ear deformities ( P < .001) and normal pinna anatomical subunits ( P < .001) than Pediatrics. There were no significant interaction effects between the level of training and the specialty type on either ear deformity or normal pinna anatomy identification. Residents had a 34.5% success rate of identifying ear deformities and showed improved confidence in identification when exposed to a digital-based examination. Improved education methods for detection will help with timely correction of ear deformities.
