Description

The study's design framework holds both modalities constant in everything except the modality-specific component: both groups first receive the same standardized instructor-led lecture, then receive either simulation practice with debriefing or facilitated interactive video, standardized to the same 40-minute modality-specific duration. This lets the trial compare "the added value of post-lecture training formats", though it means the independent effect of each stand-alone modality cannot be isolated.

Design Implications

Context

Requirements

  • An identical standardized lecture delivered by the same instructor team before the modality-specific intervention
  • Standardized modality-specific duration across groups

Constraints

  • A substantial portion of observed knowledge gain is likely attributable to the shared lecture and test–retest exposure
  • Better suited to comparing post-lecture formats than isolating stand-alone modality effects

Target Learners

  • undergraduate medical students

Learning Goals

  • procedural and knowledge outcomes for resuscitation training
