ABSTRACT
This article was migrated. The article was marked as recommended.

Background:

A thorough understanding of infectious diseases is needed by medical professionals; therefore effective microbiological teaching is critical. Although faculty lectures are a convenient means of educating large groups of students, they may fail to engage students and convey an understanding of the subject. Therefore, we developed peer teaching methods based on game-based learning using a reality musical talent show format.

Methods:

A group of student representatives were trained to lecture to a class of 300 third-year medical students via a game show format over a 3-year period (2013-2015).

Results:

The students reported a higher level of understanding (3.6-4.2 vs 3.6-3.9 out of 5; p

Conclusions:

Peer teaching did improve the students' attitude towards learning and conferred teaching skills, but the learning activity needs adjustment to reduce the out-of-class preparation time.
