| description | Background:
Activities focusing on skill building of postgraduate (PG) students are the need of the hour, and hence, the PG education committee of IPSWZB started a unique online monthly activity called Tenacious Tuesday Teachings for the past 2 years. This article looks into the analysis of the feedback received from the PGs after the online teaching activity to improve the areas of the teaching–learning program.
Methods:
This was a retrospective analysis of the questionnaire-based feedback form after the waiver of consent. Every year, 11 teaching programs took place, and a separate zonal WhatsApp group of all residents was formed. At the end of every session, the experts gave feedback to the presenting participant, and feedback was also collected by a Likert-rated Google Forms from all the participants who attended the session regarding the effectiveness of the session and suggestions if any.
Results:
Maximum attendance was observed in sessions on case presentations, mock table viva, and spots. Participant feedback showed most agreeing to sessions significantly contributing to both knowledge and skills domain and stimulated interest in the subject. Suggestions included comments on connectivity-related issues, requests for further sessions, especially on topics such as mental status examination, and demand for correct answers during viva sessions, some of which were incorporated in future sessions.
Conclusion:
Associations/bodies, zonal and national, can help in improving this unmet demand for interactive skill-based teaching sessions in enhancing the training of PG students. Feedback can be a powerful tool in fine-tuning such programs as per the students’ requirements. |
