Description

A structured tele-education intervention consisting of a live online theoretical lecture followed by a one-month program of short videos and supporting materials prepared by three endocrinologists, delivered via WhatsApp. Videos were shared multiple times, residents confirmed exposure at the end, and questions could be submitted during the period. The article describes it as illustrating "the feasibility of implementing scalable, low-cost educational programs across diverse training contexts."

Design Implications

Context

Requirements

  • Residents must confirm they watched the shared video content to ensure full exposure; delivery requires a widely available messaging platform

Constraints

  • Exposure verification relied on self-report; the program was strictly educational and noninterventional in patient care

Target Learners

  • internal medicine residents at teaching hospitals

Learning Goals

  • knowledge of inpatient hyperglycemia management
  • appropriate insulin prescribing and glucose monitoring
