Application of virtual case teaching integrating SP and OSCE in experimental exercise therapy courses
To evaluate the effectiveness of virtual case teaching integrating standardized patients (SP) and objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) in enhancing students' clinical thinking and practical skills in experimental exercise therapy course.
Methods
2
In April 2023
52 students from the 2021 cohort and 54 students from the 2022 cohort of the Rehabilitation Therapy undergraduate program at Xinjiang Medical University were selected and divided into the experimental group and control group according to their classes. In the shoulder joint mobilization experimental class of th
e exercise therapy course
virtual SP teaching was performed in the experimental group of both cohorts. For the control group
student-led SP teaching was performed in the 2021 cohort
while the traditional "lecture + demonstration" method was used in the 2022 cohort. Upon completion of teaching
theoretical exams
case analysis
practical exams
and a teaching satisfaction survey were conducted on the students. Data were analyzed using the
t
-test and chi-square test in SPSS 25.0.
Results
2
In both cohorts
the experimental group had similar theoretical exam scores (
P
=0.207 and
P
=0.097
respectively) to the control group
but had higher practical exam scores (
P
=0.013 and
P
=0.002
respectively) than the control group. In the case analysis exam
the experimental group scored higher than the control group in the 2022 cohort (
t
=2.84
P
=0.006) but similarly to the control group in the 2021 cohort (
t
=1.53
P
=0.132). All students believed that virtual SP teaching was most engaging. In terms of understanding complex concepts
increasing active participation
and fostering clinical thinking
the 2022 cohort was more satisfied with virtual SP teaching
whereas the 2021 cohort experienced no significant difference between virtual SP teaching and student-led SP teaching. In addition
the 2021 cohort found that student-led SP teaching was more helpful for improving doctor-patient communication skills.
Conclusions
2
The application of virtual SP teaching in the experimental exercise therapy course effectively enhances students' practical skills and case analysis capabilities
contributing greatly to their overall clinical management thinking.
