An Evaluation of Formative “In-Class” versus “E-Learning” Activities to Benefit Student Learning Outcomes in Biomedical Sciences

Figure 2

Example of an interactive “drop and drag” activity in the e-learning module. The learner can interact with the activity by using the cursor to drag the appropriate star to a region of interest on the blood film and then receive instant feedback regarding their choices. After three incorrect attempts the module highlights the correct answer with feedback and directed learning, providing the learner with a choice to proceed or review further material. Analytics are available to the academic to monitor each question and answer and adapt the question or activity to suit the learner.
