A near-peer teaching experience for upper-level medical students could help prepare them for surgical residency by providing specific education opportunities and exposure to the field of surgery. Five medical students were selected to be near-peer teachers (NPTs) in gross anatomy, and then they reflected on their experiences. The NPTs spent the majority of effort in a teaching role, and reported improved NTS, anatomy knowledge, and dissection skills. MS1s and faculty also reported on the value of the ASP. Further development and evaluation of the ASP may be an excellent opportunity for future surgeons.
为高年级医学生提供的近龄同伴教学体验，通过提供特定的教育机会和让他们接触外科领域，可为他们进入外科住院医师阶段做好准备。五名医学生被选为大体解剖学的近龄同伴教师（NPTs），然后他们对自己的经历进行了反思。NPTs将大部分精力投入到教学角色中，并报告说他们的非技术技能（NTS）、解剖学知识和解剖技能都有所提高。一年级医学生（MS1s）和教师也报告了该解剖学同伴教学（ASP）的价值。对ASP的进一步发展和评估可能是未来外科医生的一个绝佳机会。
