Abstract
Technology enhanced learning (TEL) modules on common pediatric respiratory conditions have often not been aligned to appropriate pedagogy. This study appraised the impact of a new TEL module on the skills and knowledge of pediatric trainees. The TEL module on common pediatric respiratory conditions was piloted using a combination of medical educational theories and feedback from participants was collected. The feedback from 32 participants was largely positive as demonstrated by high Likert scores on the evaluation forms. The post-module quiz scores significantly improved when compared with the pre-module quiz scores (67.0 ± 21.9% versus 42.5 ± 23.8%, P < .0001). Participants reported that the TEL module was time efficient and tailored to different levels of learners providing a self-directed and flexible learning approach based on their clinical practice. Trainees perceived that this new TEL module improved their skills and knowledge, enhancing their management of pediatric respiratory conditions going forward.
