BINGO! Elevating Medical Physiology Tutorials Through Gamification.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

We introduced a BINGO game as an active learning strategy for pulmonary, renal, and endocrine physiology, aiming to enhance student engagement and application of physiology knowledge.

Methods

Each BINGO tutorial utilized a template featuring 50-60 questions aligned with prior learning events, was delivered to 90 second-year medical students, and lasted 50-80 minutes. Iterative improvements, including revealing correct answers and a polling system, were implemented based on student feedback. Sessions required BINGO materials, prizes, and, in one iteration, polling software. Postsession surveys assessed perceptions and engagement via a 5-point Likert scale (1 = strongly disagree, 5 = strongly agree). Thematic analysis of feedback informed iterative i
