RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to conceive, create, validate and assess a pedagogic site to teach students. STUDY DESIGN: Survey with questionnaires. METHODS: First, we performed an educational need assessment in that field, conducting a review of legal regulations and international guidelines and a survey of 91 students. Afterwards, we drew up a reference document based on proven scientific data, with selected bibliography and we wrote a list of specific teaching objectives. We then created a pedagogic Web site including illustrated references, documents, a selected bibliography and useful Internet links. These pedagogic Web sites could be associated to well-conducted tutorial sites by qualified senior physicians in an academic process to improve procedural skill teaching. After internal and external validation, this educational Web site was evaluated by students. This evaluation used the questionnaire proposed by "Régie Régionale de la Santé et des Services Sociaux de Montréal" (regional authority control of health and social services of Montreal). Our pedagogic Web site obtained 76 out of 100 and can be considered satisfactory. CONCLUSION: This study demonstrated that adapted multimedia tools can improve procedural skill teaching in anaesthesia and intensive care.
