How does the operating room function as a learning environment in undergraduate medical education?
Are YOU a medical student in Years 3-6
with previous clinical placements in
surgery/O&G?
We would like to kindly invite you to participate
in the educational research project ‘How does
the operating room function as a learning
environment in undergraduate medical
education?’
What is it about?
- The aim of this research is to understand the purpose of operating room exposure in undergraduate medical
education, during clinical attachments in surgically-orientated specialties. - We also aim to explore factors which influence medical student learning in the operating room.
Why should I care? - ALL participants will receive a £10 retail voucher (or donation to a charity of your choosing) as remuneration
for your time. - This research even its smallest scale, may inform strategies or interventions which could support teachers and
medical schools to improve student learning in these environments.
What does this involve? - Students will participate in focus groups online with other students and the lead researcher, lasting
approximately 60-90min, scheduled at your convenience. If there are issues with recruitment or scheduling,
this may take place as shorter 1:1 interviews.
