Preliminary Analysis of a Virtual Inter-University Game to Learn Radiology within the Second Life® Environment

Abstract

A competition-based game, named League of Rays (LOR), designed to learn radiology within the multi-user virtual environment Second Life was adapted for the participation of teams of four students. The game ran from 20 February to 1 April 2020. Forty-one teams from 16 universities initially signed up and 28 teams from 14 universities finished the game. Participants found this activity fun, enjoyable and useful for their training. Some interesting proposals to be included in future editions of the game and interesting comments on the meaning of developing half of the game during the confinement caused by the Covid-19 pandemic were provided from participants.
