EYE-ECG: An RCT of the influence of student characteristics and expert eye-tracking videos with cued retrospective reporting on students' ECG interpretation skills.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Teaching of ECG interpretation frequently relies on visual schemas. However, subsequent student ECG interpretation skills are often poor. Expertise research shows that expert looking patterns frequently deviate from the steps taught in schema learning. The present study made a cardiology expert's gaze interpreting ECGs visible - through eye-tracking videos with cued retrospective reporting (CRR) - and investigated the potential as an additional expert-driven route to improve medical students' ECG interpretation skills.

Methods

N=91 Medical students participated in the RCT of an ECG e-learning session aimed at medical students' ECG interpretation skills gain, either receiving the newly developed eye-tracking video with CRR audio commentary materials (n
