Abstract

INTRODUCTION: In this pandemic period, offline teaching methods had to be transformed into online teaching methods so medical students could acquire basic skills and competencies in ophthalmology. This study purposed to compare the effectiveness of the online learning method between video demonstration and written module material among medical students in refractive error management.

METHODS: This interventional study was placed in a teaching hospital and involved 46 medical students. The students were divided into two groups. Each group watched the clinical skill video or read a written module about refractive error management. The student’s skills in refractive error management were assessed by an objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) test on the following day.

RESULTS: The mean score of the OSCE test between the video demonstration group and written module material was 84.38 + 14.21 and 82.60 + 17.97, respectively (p=0.710). In video group, students who are in initial clerkship rotation had higher score test (88.37 + 10.96) than students in final rotation (76.91 + 17.22, p=0.064). While in the module group, both initial and final clerkship students had similar score tests (82.40 + 21.25 and 82.90 + 12.43, respectively, p=0.951).

CONCLUSIONS: This study’s results emphasized that both online teaching methods, video demonstration and written module material, are equally effective in improving medical students’ basic ophthalmology skills, especially in refractive error management. Details procedures demonstration accompanied by a good explanation in the video and module content should be applied to ensure the students can understand and perform essential competencies in ophthalmology.
