Area of Science:

Medical Education Technology
Competency-Based Medical Education

Background:

Digital entrustable professional activities (EPAs) and simulations are transforming medical education towards competency-based learning.
The technology acceptance model (TAM) offers a framework for understanding the adoption of educational technologies, focusing on perceived usefulness and ease of use.

Purpose of the Study:

To investigate medical students' acceptance of digital EPAs within simulated training environments.
To examine the influence of perceived usefulness and ease of use on the adoption of digital EPAs, guided by TAM principles.

Main Methods:

A cohort study involving clinical-phase medical students at Ludwig Maximilians University Munich.
Data collection via a survey distributed through the Module-6 distributor.
Analysis of student perceptions using regression analysis.

Main Results:

Data collection is expected to conclude by April 2025, with analysis by May 2025.
Results will illuminate student attitudes towards digital EPAs and their integration into learning.
Insights into factors driving or hindering the adoption of digital EPAs in medical training.

Conclusions:

The study will enhance understanding of digital EPAs in medical education, informing future tool design and implementation.
Perceived usefulness and ease of use are critical for successful digital EPA integration.
Acknowledges limitations in sample size and recruitment, emphasizing the need for broader research to shape future medical training programs.
