q2 · i? · review · r2

Study of two samples of medical students (14 and 11 students) working in groups of three on simulated medical decision-making events; the first sample used traditional whiteboards, the second an interactive whiteboard with a structured template for constructing and sharing arguments.

"The results suggest that the sample using interactive whiteboards had deeper collaborative and regulatory discourse and better learning outcomes in patient management."

Related Claims¶

• Temporal phases of co-regulation matter: prolonged early planning to establish shared goals and common ground facilitates co-regulation and collaboration in later phases — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
• Virtual patients blended with traditional education improve knowledge more than traditional education alone (pooled SMD=0.73) — related
• Simulation Based Education With Deliberate Practice Improves Clinical Outcomes — a broader claim this one bears on
• Teacher discourse shifted toward creating new challenging situations (NI) and confirming repeats (R) in the interactive-whiteboard condition, versus providing requested information (IR) and clarification questions (Q) in the traditional-whiteboard condition — related
• Co-regulation led to shared understandings with effective patient management as a result (Lajoie and Lu) — related
