COVID-19 lockdowns have deeply impacted teaching programs. Online teaching has suddenly become the main form of medical education, a form that may be used as long as the pandemic continues. We aimed at analyzing how online teaching was perceived by both teachers and learners to help determine how to adapt curricula in the next few years. An anonymous cross-sectional survey of medical students, pediatric residents, neonatal fellows, and their respective teachers was conducted between June and August 2020 to assess feelings about quality, attendance, equivalence, and sustainability of online teaching programs. 146 Students and 26 teachers completed the survey. 89% of students agreed that the offered online teaching was an appropriate way of teaching during the pandemic. Less than half of learners and teachers felt they have received or provided a training of an equivalent level and quality as in usual courses. About one-third thought that this online teaching should continue after the crisis ends. Medical school students had significantly more mixed opinions on online teaching than residents and fellows did. Attendance of learners significantly improved with synchronous online classes (p < 0.001), and among more advanced learners (p < 0.002). Our study is the first of this kind to assess simultaneously the feelings of learners at different levels (medical students, residents, and fellows) and their respective teachers of pediatric on programs taught online. It showed that online programs were perceived as appropriate ways of teaching during the COVID pandemic. Further studies are, however, needed to assess the efficacy of such teaching methods on medical skills and communication capabilities.
COVID-19 封锁措施对教学计划产生了深远的影响。在线教学突然成为医学教育的主要形式，只要大流行持续，这种形式可能会一直被使用。我们旨在分析教师和学习者如何看待在线教学，以帮助确定如何在未来几年调整课程。我们在 2020 年 6 月至 8 月期间对医学生、儿科住院医师、新生儿研究员及其各自的教师进行了一项匿名横断面调查，以评估他们对在线教学计划的质量、出勤率、等效性和可持续性的感受。共有 146 名学生和 26 名教师完成了调查。89%的学生认为在疫情期间提供的在线教学是一种合适的教学方式。不到一半的学习者和教师认为他们接受或提供的培训与常规课程具有同等水平和质量。大约三分之一的人认为这种在线教学应该在危机结束后继续。与住院医师和研究员相比，医学生对在线教学的看法更为复杂。学习者的出勤率随着同步在线课程的增加而显著提高（p<0.001），并且在更高级的学习者中（p<0.002）也是如此。我们的研究首次同时评估了不同层次（医学生、住院医师和研究员）的学习者及其儿科在线课程的教师对在线教学的感受。结果表明，在线课程被视为 COVID 大流行期间合适的教学方式。然而，还需要进一步的研究来评估这种教学方法对医学技能和沟通能力的效果。
