Training of clinical reasoning with a Serious Game versus small-group problem-based learning: A prospective study

摘要

IntroductionSerious Games are increasingly being used in undergraduate medical education. They are usually intended to enhance learning with a focus on knowledge acquisition and skills development. According to the current literature, few studies have assessed their effectiveness regarding clinical reasoning (CR). The aim of this prospective study was to compare a Serious Game, the virtual Accident & Emergency department ‘EMERGE’ to small-group problem-based learning (PBL) regarding student learning outcome on clinical reasoning in the short term.
