Abstract

Digital learning (e-learning) has become a firm part of surgical undergraduate education. However, there is still a lack in analyzing e-learning tools in experimental settings without potentially biasing curricular influences. This study should compare students’ learning outcome with podcasts versus book texts under laboratory conditions in the field of orthopedics.
