Episode Synopsis


In this episode, we dive into research from the JMIR Medical Education journal that examines the effectiveness of peer learning in clinical skills development for undergraduate medical students. We explore how peer learning impacts clinical skills, student perceptions, and self-regulated learning, and discuss why peer support works best alongside expert guidance. Tune in to hear how a balanced approach to learning—combining faculty-led sessions with peer learning—can help future doctors master essential skills and think critically.Link to the publication: https://mededu.jmir.org/2021/3/e25875
