Didactic Power Point Teaching Method Is Not Enough to Assure Compliance: Direct Observation (DO) and Feedback Are Key Elements

Role of Three-Dimensional Visualization Modalities in Medical Education

“…Labrecque et al proved a distinct difference between passive training through slide-based presentation and interactive training. In a central venous catheter needle access and dressing change course, nurses who were trained with slide-based presentation made more errors than those who were trained by direct observation and feedback ( 14 ). Therefore, interactive learning has been shown to be an important element in teaching students as it increases their attention span and helps them improve from previous mistakes.…”

“…Therefore, interactive learning has been shown to be an important element in teaching students as it increases their attention span and helps them improve from previous mistakes. Nurses who were trained with observation and feedback reported that their learning sessions were more interesting to follow ( 14 ). Therefore, interactive teaching modalities using 3D printed models, AR and VR technology were explored to address the limitations of slide-based lecture.…”
