This study looked at whether a student's natural ability to visualize and mentally rotate 3D objects affects how well they learn hands-on physiotherapy skills. Researchers tested 118 students on their spatial thinking and compared it to their performance in practical tasks and ex…

This study tested a new way to teach CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) to schoolchildren in Brazil. Researchers used video games and active learning methods to see if kids aged 7 to 17 could learn and perform proper chest compressions. The goal was to gather knowledge on the be…

This study tested how well doctors remember a rare, life-saving emergency airway procedure months after training. Researchers compared training on an expensive commercial model versus a low-cost homemade one. The goal was to see if the cheaper model was just as good for helping d…

This study tested two different training methods to help midwifery students improve their family planning counseling skills and their ability to create educational materials. Researchers compared students who practiced with trained actors (standardized patients) or with fellow st…
