The landscape of medical education continues to evolve. Educators and learners must stay informed on current medical literature, in addition to focusing efforts on current educational trends and evidence-based methods. The present review summarizes recent advancements in anesthesiology education, specifically highlighting trends in e-learning and telesimulation, and identifies possible future directions for the field.
Websites and online platforms continue to be a primary source of educational content; top websites are more likely to utilize standardized editorial processes. Podcasts and videocasts are important tools desired by learners for asynchronous education. Social media has been utilized to enhance the reach and visibility of journal articles, and less often as a primary educational venue; its efficacy in comparison with other e-learning platforms has not been adequately evaluated. Telesimulation can effectively disseminate practical techniques and clinical knowledge sharing, extending the capabilities of simulation beyond previous restrictions in geography, space, and available expertise.
E-learning has changed the way anesthesiology learners acquire knowledge, expanding content and curricula available and promoting international collaboration. More work should be done to expand the principles of accessible and collaborative education to psychomotor and cognitive learning via telesimulation.
医学教育的格局在不断发展。教育者和学习者除了关注当前的教育趋势和循证方法外，还必须了解当前的医学文献。本综述总结了麻醉学教育的最新进展，特别是强调了电子学习和远程模拟的趋势，并确定了该领域未来可能的发展方向。
网站和在线平台仍然是教育内容的主要来源；排名较高的网站更有可能采用标准化的编辑流程。播客和视频广播是学习者希望用于异步教育的重要工具。社交媒体已被用于提高期刊文章的传播力和可见度，较少被用作主要的教育场所；它在与其他电子学习平台的比较中的效果尚未得到充分评估。远程模拟可以有效地传播实践技术和临床知识共享，将模拟的功能扩展到以前在地理、空间和可用专业知识方面的限制之外。
电子学习改变了麻醉学学习者获取知识的方式，扩大了可用的内容和课程，并促进了国际合作。应该做更多的工作来通过远程模拟将可及性和协作性教育的原则扩展到运动和认知学习。
