Randomized Controlled Study of a Remote Flipped Classroom Neuro-otology Curriculum.

ABSTRACT:

Context

Medical Education can be delivered in the traditional classroom or via novel technology including an online classroom.

Objective

To test the hypothesis that learning in an online classroom would result in similar outcomes as learning in the traditional classroom when using a flipped classroom pedagogy.

Design

Randomized controlled trial. A total of 274 subjects enrolled in a Neuro-otology training program for non-Neuro-otologists of 25 h held over a 3-day period. Subjects were randomized into a "control" group attending a traditional classroom and a "trial" group of equal numbers participating in an online synchronous Internet streaming classroom using the Adobe Connect e-learning platform.

Interventions

Subjects were randomized into a "control"
