A study of online video animation vs live specimen based learning in pathology practicals - A randomised experimental cross sectional study in MBBS 2nd year students

Abstract

There are a lot of changes that are happening in the field of Medical Education. Gone are the days where only lecture used to happen and the whole batch of students used to attend the same. But then when the Covid hit us, we had to look into ourselves. We had to use whatever methods possible to teach effectively. The students were sent home and it became really difficult to teach them online. But video based animations were used to teach. But was it effective? What was the student’s perception? To know the answer to this question this effort has been put.
