Abstract:
Implication Statement We require our medical students to create art as part of a core course. Projects have historically been displayed at our health sciences library. During a rapid adjustment to virtual teaching at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, using Instagram to hold a virtual art show was a quickly implemented alternative. With student consent, course directors posted different artwork every weekday for eight weeks to a course account. By capitalizing on the visual strengths and extensive reach of the Instagram platform, we promoted our medical students' talents both locally and nationally. We plan to use Instagram and in-person displays in the future. Énoncé des implications de la recherche Dans un de leurs cours du tronc commun, nos étudiants en médecine sont amenés à faire de l'art. Avant la pandémie de la COVID-19, leurs projets étaient exposés à la bibliothèque des sciences de la santé. La solution de rechange trouvée dans le cadre d'une adaptation rapide à l'enseignement virtuel au début de la pandémie a été d'utiliser Instagram pour exposer virtuellement les œuvres. Avec le consentement des étudiants, les responsables de cours ont publié des œuvres différentes tous les jours pendant huit semaines sur un compte Instagram créé pour le cours. Tirant parti des atouts visuels et de la vaste portée de la plateforme, nous avons pu promouvoir les talents de nos étudiants en médecine tant au niveau local qu'au niveau national. À l'avenir, nous comptons combiner les expositions physiques et Instagram.
