TABLE 2.

Options for delivery of education

Delivery method of education Description
Microlearning through social media Succinct and appealing but glosses over the complexity of medicine and may risk over simplifying content [14]
The unregulated nature of these platforms is also a concern
Podcasts Audio recording, ideally <30 min
Preferred as dialogue rather than monologue lectures and better with a conversational tone, personal anecdotes and humour to engage [15]
Videos/video discussions Recorded videos, combining recorded images in a similar format to a podcast with two experts discussing a topic or a non-expert interviewer questioning an expert
Webinars Synchronous or asynchronous content involving panel discussion with opportunity for audience interaction [16]
Game-based learning Exert their education-promoting function by providing the possibility of combining learning activities such as feedback, testing and spaced repetition with active participation and autonomy as well as positive experiences for learners [17]
