Description

The workshop pattern combines anatomy and procedural-overview lectures with small-group rotation through three hands-on simulation stations, each guided by near-peer teachers. The article states "Hands-on training was preceded by lectures encapsulating relevant anatomy, indications, complications, and step-by-step instructions," with participants divided into small groups rotating through the stations. Educational material was preapproved by otolaryngology faculty before delivery.
