Participants in the research included 10 students of Shahid Sadoughi University of Medical Sciences, Yazd, in the academic year 2022-2023 who were selected through purposive sampling. The research data collection tool included a semi-structured interview. Method of data analysis adapted from Smith was used, and the criteria of rigor and trustworthiness were considered.
Results: Eexperienced perceptions of medical students regarding the positive effects of electronic teaching were investigated and four main themes, including improving the hardware and software of virtual education, understanding the value of medical staff and health laws, increasing knowledge sharing and the role of virtual education, facilitating access to national and international education, and 12 sub-themes were achieved.
Conclusion: Based on the results of the current research, the positive experiences gained from e-learning during the COVID-19 pandemic can be used when distance learning is necessary, such as air pollution or unexpected events. Therefore, policy makers and planners of medical education can improve the quality of education by taking advantage of these experiences. |
