摘要

Background: To assess whether an online course is a useful method of learning for medical students revising for specialty examinations in the context of social distancing restrictions during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: A free, one-day webinar was offered to fifth and final year medical students with an examination-based approach. Teaching was delivered by trainees in Psychiatry, Obstetrics and Gynaecology and Paediatrics (the ‘specialties’). An online, questionnaire-based crosssectional study was conducted to assess usefulness and acceptability of the webinar by enrolled students, who were invited to complete the research questionnaire. Student responses pertaining to knowledge, confidence and interest, pre- and post-webinar, were collected and analysed. Results: A total of 247 students attended the webinar, with a 98.4% response rate to the questionnaire. Ninety-one percent of students agreed that webinars offer flexibility and convenience. About 55.1% felt that the pandemic had impacted their ability to learn new information. About 92.7% felt that the webinar was useful. Matched data showed an increase in participants’ knowledge (p = 0.001) and confidence (p 0.001). Conclusion: Online learning provides a useful, accessible and safe method of providing medical education in the context of the global pandemic. Webinars adopting a lecture-based, examination-style approach improved students’ perceived confidence and knowledge.
