Description:
Objectives: The aim of this study was to devise, implement and evaluate a paediatric contextualised reusable computer-aided learning resource. Methods: This study is an evaluation of a curriculum development in which all 21 third year undergraduate physiotherapists at the University of Nottingham partici-pated. Data collection was via an online survey tool comprising open and closed questions using Likert scaling (1-5). Closed questions were aimed at ease of use, task setting and development of clinical reasoning skills. Two free text opportunities were provided. Results: The five point Likert ranking most frequently selected was agree or strongly agree. The first prompt for "specific issues with practical use" provided a main theme of poor experience using podcast elements; whilst the second prompt "anything else . . . you would like to add" provided a main theme of appreciation for the realism and problem solving skills stimulation. Conclusions: The computer-aided learning resource was found to be an appropriate teaching and learning approach. Students perceived that it facilitated their practice of clinical case management with this patient group.
