Email can enhance medical education. This study found that email summaries and discussions significantly boosted learning from traditional mock code teaching rounds, even for residents with low attendance.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Digital Learning
  • Continuing Medical Education

Background:

  • Traditional teaching rounds face challenges in consistent resident engagement.
  • Supplementing in-person sessions is crucial for effective medical training.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of email as a supplementary tool for mock code teaching rounds.
  • To assess resident engagement and learning outcomes through an email-based educational intervention.

Main Methods:

  • Implemented a weekly educational intervention involving mock codes and follow-up emails.
  • Distributed two emails daily: one summarizing key points, another soliciting discussion.
  • Sent a third email weekly summarizing the discussion, collecting all communications for review.

  • Surveyed resident participants regarding their engagement and perceived learning.

    • Main Results:

    • Despite 40% of residents attending less than half of mock codes, over 90% read the emails.
    • A majority of residents stored, printed, and re-read the email content.
    • 7/13 residents reported learning as much or more from emails compared to the mock code sessions.

    Conclusions:

    • Email effectively supplements traditional mock code teaching rounds.
    • Email-based learning increases resident engagement and knowledge retention.
    • This digital approach offers a valuable adjunct to conventional medical education methods.
