In the field of medical education, crowdsourcing is the practice of obtaining views and inputs from a heterogeneous group of people using preferably digital platforms, with an aim to contribute to medical learning, creation of contents, and problem-solving and strengthen assessments. Considering the fact that medical knowledge continues to change with each day, this approach facilitates the process of continuous updation of the educational content based on recent developments. Regardless of the scope, application, and merits that can be attributed to crowdsourcing in medical education, there are some potential concerns that must be taken into account for optimizing the benefits. In summary, crowdsourcing has immense scope in medical education to create an inclusive and updated learning environment for medical students and healthcare professionals. The inputs generated through collective minds are expected to enrich the learning experience, and thus, we must look forward to exploring it for better utility.
在医学教育领域，众包是指利用数字平台从不同人群中获取观点和意见的做法，目的是促进医学学习、内容创作、问题解决以及强化评估。鉴于医学知识日新月异，这种方法有助于根据最新进展不断更新教育内容。尽管众包在医学教育中的范围、应用和优点有很多，但为了优化其益处，仍需考虑一些潜在问题。总之，众包在医学教育中具有巨大潜力，可为医学生和医疗保健专业人员创造一个包容且与时俱进的学习环境。通过集体智慧产生的意见有望丰富学习体验，因此，我们必须期待探索其以实现更好的效用。
