TEACHING INTERNAL MEDICINE IN THE SHADOW OF THE COVID-19 OUTBREAK - THE EXPERIENCE OF THE TECHNION FACULTY OF MEDICINE
INTRODUCTION: The clerkship of internal medicine is pursued in the 2nd semester of the 4th year at the Technion Medical School. Following the COVID-19 outbreak, frontal and bedside teaching was interrupted. Therefore, we decided to provide distant teaching until having the opportunity to resume clinical bedside teaching. A team of tutors composed a course of weekly units, each week assigned to a different subject in internal medicine. A total of 120 students were divided into 15 groups of 8 students, each group guided by a personal tutor. The format of each unit included online pretest, clinical virtual cases and two separate 2 hour ZOOM sessions with the tutor. The pretest was based on 1-3 chapters from Harrison's Internal Medicine textbook, 20th edition, and consisted of both clinical reasoning and knowledge questions. During ZOOM sessions with the tutor, the students practiced clinical problem solving. In addition, all the students were granted free access to the commercial "Aquifer" case-based virtual course for more practice. The students' feedback at the end of the learning period revealed that, although frustrated in being away from the clinics, the overall level of satisfaction from the course was good (rated 5 or 4/5 by 65% of responders) and the time was used efficiently. In conclusion, the students received a positive proactive learning experience of both theoretical aspects and clinical reasoning skills in internal medicine. There is no doubt that bedside teaching in medicine is invaluable and can't be replaced by any other means, however, given the circumstances, our format provided a reasonable temporary alternative.
