Abstract:
The COVID-19 pandemic reshaped parasitology education, exposing challenges in delivering laboratory-rich, experiential learning. Case-based e-learning (CBEL) emerged as a powerful solution, restoring engagement through authentic, adaptive, and interactive scenarios. Drawing on our recent experiences, we show how CBEL supports deeper reasoning, flexibility, development of competency, and preparedness for parasitic diseases.
