Zusammenfassung

Hintergrund

Im Sommersemester 2006 wurde an der Universitäts-Augenklinik Freiburg ein vorlesungsbegleitendes, internetbasiertes E-Learning-Modul für Studierende eingerichtet.

Methoden

Den Studierenden begegnen im E-Learning-Modul die aus der Vorlesung bekannten Fallbeispiele quasi-interaktiv im Frage-Antwort-Modus. Inhalte, Format, Bedienbarkeit und Lerneffekt des E-Learnings wurden über 2 Semester durch die Studierenden evaluiert.

Ergebnisse

Von insgesamt 307 Studierenden im Augenkurs nutzten 272 das E-Learning-Angebot. Pro Nutzer wurden durchschnittlich 94% der angebotenen Inhalte bearbeitet. Über 75% der Studierenden gaben an, Spaß bei der Bearbeitung des E-Learnings gehabt zu haben. Studierende mit überdurchschnittlicher E-Learning-Nutzung erreichten tendenziell bessere Ergebnisse in der Abschlussprüfung.

Schlussfolgerung

E-Learning als sinnvolle Ergänzung zur Präsenzlehre wird von den Studierenden sehr gut angenommen. Für die Lehrenden stellt es eine Möglichkeit dar, mit vergleichsweise geringem Aufwand die Inhalte der Präsenzlehre zur Wiederholung und Vertiefung anzubieten.

Abstract

Background

In 2006, the University Eye Hospital Freiburg (Germany) introduced an Internet-based e-learning module as part of the ophthalmology training for medical students.

Methods

In the e-learning module, the students encounter the same cases as discussed during lectures and seminars. The case presentation is based on an interactive question-and-answer game. Content, format, usability, and effectiveness of the e-learning module were evaluated by the students over two terms.

Results

Of 307 students, 272 used the e-learning module. On average, 94% of the content was processed per student. More than 75% stated that they had fun working with the e-learning module. Students with frequent e-learning use tended to achieve higher marks in their final ophthalmology exams.

Conclusion

E-learning represents a sensible addendum to the established ophthalmology training for medical students. It is comparably easy to integrate into the curriculum and is well accepted by medical students.
