In this episode of The APS Publications Podcast, we feature Dr. Himel Mondal (All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Deoghar, India), discussing his recently published article by Mondal et al. in Advances in Physiology Education.
The study presents the participation of medical students in Twitter poll-based formative assessment in a rural medical college in India. Despite low participation rates, students found social media-based formative assessment highly effective in increasing their attention during class. The work by Mondal and co-authors also reveals student preferences for alternative platforms like Telegram and Instagram. These insights contribute significantly to understanding the impact and relevance of social media-based formative assessment in diverse educational contexts. Listen now to learn more.
