NCT ID NCT07782437
First seen Aug 24, 2026 · Last updated Aug 27, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This trial tests whether first-year medical students learn upper extremity muscles better when they study with team-based question-and-answer sessions using flashcards, compared to standard teaching. Students take a 20-question anatomy knowledge test before and after the learning session. The study aims to see if this interactive method boosts academic achievement.
