Artificial Intelligence in the Curriculum Design of an Undergraduate General Surgery Clinical Rotation: An Action Research Study

Project Details

Description

The creation of educational curricula is a complex task and keeping them updated is crucial for the adequate training of students. Rotations in general surgery are vital for the development of basic competencies and interest in surgical areas. However, the lack of updating has decreased student motivation. AI is presented as a potential tool to support this process.

Objective

To explore how AI can contribute to the design of a curriculum for clinical rotations in general surgery and how the managers, teachers, students and medical educators involved perceive, adjust and complement this design.

Key findings

: The integration of AI in curricular design is expected to facilitate the creation of a more dynamic and attractive curriculum, increasing student interest and improving their learning results. Furthermore, it is anticipated that the use of AI will allow for continuous and effective updating of the curriculum, better adapting to current and
future educational needs.
