Videoconferencing teaching methods are commonly used in medical education to deliver multi-site teaching. However, many studies have shown problems relating to this type of teaching [1-9]. In the South East region of Scotland, videoconferencing teaching for foundation doctors is conducted between three hospital sites. Poor feedback about the quality of this teaching prompted the investigators to perform a quality improvement study to explore problems with videoconferencing in this setting, and if applicable, apply interventions to improve this teaching. After a literature review, a data collection tool was created and distributed to doctors participating in this teaching. Thirteen questionnaires were completed which highlighted problems mainly relating to technology and poor interaction between sites. As a result of these findings, the investigators have implemented interventions to rectify these issues and ultimately improve the teaching that this region delivers.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
