Free to attend – registration required / 6pm GMT
Talk and discussion on our experience as a national organisation running neer-peer education, analysing results from this, and publishing and presenting. We will aim to discuss the best format in which to collect feedback, questions that are important for analysing learning and the value of teaching sessions, and statistical and qualitative analysis techniques applied. We will also discuss our experience of hosting the only national virtual free clinical skills practice series and what we have learnt from this with regards to students’ perceptions on the value of remote clinical skills teaching.
