Résumé succinct
The goal of this research study is to learn if a new, game-based way of teaching neurology grand rounds (called "gamified teaching") works better than the traditional lecture-based format for neurology residents. It will also test whether using wristbands that measure stress and attention can help teachers adjust their pace in real time, and whether earning digital achievement badges motivates residents to keep learn...Afficher plus

Critère principal d'évaluation
Critère secondaire d'évaluation
| Critères d'évaluation | Description de la mesure | Période |
|---|---|---|
Immediate Knowledge Acquisition (Post-Session Test Score) | Standardized 15-item multiple-choice quiz assessing comprehension of case localization, etiology, differential diagnosis, and management. Each item has one correct answer. Score is percentage correct (0-100%). Tests are administered immediately following each grand rounds session. Internal consistency confirmed via pilot testing (Cronbach's α ≥ 0.7). | Within 30 minutes after each grand rounds session (8 total sessions per participant; measured across both study periods, Weeks 1-2 and Weeks 7-8) |
3-Month Knowledge Retention (Delayed Retention Test Score and Retention Rate) | Parallel-form 15-item multiple-choice test matching the immediate post-test in blueprint, difficulty, and internal consistency, but with different question wording and distractor options. Retention rate is calculated as (3-month test score / average immediate post-test score across both periods) × 100%. Higher scores indicate better long-term retention. | 3 months (± 2 weeks) after completion of Period 2 intervention (Week 8) |
| Critères d'évaluation | Description de la mesure | Période |
|---|---|---|
Diagnostic Redundancy Ratio | Efficiency of clinical reasoning measured as the ratio of actual diagnostic tests ordered by a participant/team to the minimal necessary tests defined by expert consensus. Lower ratio indicates more efficient test selection. For gamified sessions, data extracted from platform clickstream logs; for traditional sessions, recorded by research assistant during Q\&A. | During each grand rounds session (8 total sessions; Weeks 1-2 and Weeks 7-8) |
Time to Key Information Extraction | Speed of accurate clinical localization. For gamified sessions: number of click steps from case start to first correct localization decision. For traditional sessions: minutes from session start to first correct verbal localization response. Shorter time indicates more efficient reasoning. | During each grand rounds session (8 total sessions; Weeks 1-2 and Weeks 7-8) |
Learner Engagement - Interaction Frequency | Frequency of voluntary learning behaviors. For traditional sessions: number of hand-raises, questions asked, or comments made (recorded by research assistant). For gamified sessions: clickstream depth (average interactions per minute, including decisions, feedback reviews, leaderboard checks). Higher values indicate greater engagement. | During each grand rounds session (8 total sessions; Weeks 1-2 and Weeks 7-8) |
Flow Experience | Self-reported immersion and absorption during the learning session. Measured using a single-item slider question: "During this session, I felt completely immersed and lost track of time." Response range: 0 (not at all) to 100 (completely). Administered immediately after each session. | Within 10 minutes after each grand rounds session (8 total sessions; Weeks 1-2 and Weeks 7-8) |
Subjective Cognitive Load | Perceived mental effort required to follow the session. Measured using the Paas 9-point Likert scale (1 = very low cognitive load, 9 = very high cognitive load). Administered immediately after each session. | Within 10 minutes after each grand rounds session (8 total sessions; Weeks 1-2 and Weeks 7-8) |
Instructor Pacing Adjustment Effectiveness | Impact of real-time cognitive load alerts on group cognitive load. Measured as the change in Group Cognitive Load Index (GCLI) slope from 5 minutes before to 5 minutes after an instructor receives an adaptive alert (GCLI \>80% or \<30% for ≥2 minutes). Negative slope change indicates successful load reduction. | During gamified grand rounds sessions only (4 sessions per participant in crossover arms; Weeks 1-2 for Sequence A, Weeks 7-8 for Sequence B) |
Perceived Value of Blockchain Badges | Usefulness and ease of use of the NFT achievement badge system. Measured using a modified Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) survey with 7-point Likert scales (1 = strongly disagree, 7 = strongly agree). Subscales: perceived usefulness (e.g., "Badges help me track learning progress") and perceived ease of use (e.g., "Digital wallet is easy to use"). | At 3-month follow-up (Week 20, ±2 weeks) |
Self-Directed Learning Behavior | Voluntary educational activities following study completion. Measured via: (1) frequency of neurology textbook/journal borrowing from institutional library, and (2) completion rate of optional online neurology courses recorded in the residency learning management system. Higher values indicate greater sustained motivation. | During the 3-month period following completion of Period 2 (Weeks 8-20) |
