E-learning provides a flexible and effective approach to learning and is increasingly used in otorhinolaryngology (ORL). We developed a national theoretical e-learning course for ORL trainees and describe our experiences with implementation as well as piloting the e-learning course.
E-learning course content was developed as structured multiple choice quizzes for the European core curriculum textbook. An open-source learning management system was adapted for a self-paced e-learning course. We piloted the e-learning course as a non-mandatory option for the 15 residents participating in the Danish 4-day national training course in rhinology in February 2019. A post-course survey was sent out to the participants and used in the evaluation along with activity data from the learning management system.
Fourteen out of 15 trainees participated in the e-learning course. Nine participants completed > 95% of the course. The activity data demonstrated that participants with the highest completion rate typically began well in advance of the course (> 2 months). Overall the e-learning course was rated positively in relation to learning and as preparation for the national training course. Participants responded that the level of the e-learning course was higher than and also at times in slight incongruity with the content of the national curriculum. Participants would like protected study time for e-learning activities in their residency program. All participants responded that they would use e-learning in relation to future national training courses.
Developing a national e-learning course is feasible and is well-received by trainees as well as other educational stakeholders.
电子学习为学习提供了一种灵活有效的方法，并且在耳鼻喉科（ORL）中越来越多地被使用。我们为 ORL 受训者开发了一门全国性的理论电子学习课程，并描述了我们在实施和试点电子学习课程方面的经验。
电子学习课程内容被开发为针对欧洲核心课程教科书的结构化多项选择题。一个开源的学习管理系统被改编为一个自我 paced 的电子学习课程。我们将电子学习课程作为 2019 年 2 月丹麦为期 4 天的鼻科学国家培训课程中 15 名住院医师的非强制性选择进行了试点。在课程结束后，向参与者发送了一份课后调查，并结合学习管理系统中的活动数据进行了评估。
15 名受训者中有 14 名参加了电子学习课程。9 名参与者完成了超过 95%的课程。活动数据表明，完成率最高的参与者通常在课程开始前就已经开始（>2 个月）。总体而言，电子学习课程在学习和为国家培训课程做准备方面都得到了积极的评价。参与者表示，电子学习课程的水平高于国家课程的内容，有时也与国家课程的内容略有不一致。参与者希望在住院医师项目中有专门的时间用于电子学习活动。所有参与者都表示他们将在未来的国家培训课程中使用电子学习。
开发一门全国性的电子学习课程是可行的，并且受到受训者以及其他教育利益相关者的欢迎。
