Summary - In the article, Beyond xMOOCs in healthcare education: study of the feasibility in integrating virtual patient systems and MOOC platforms by Natalia Stathakarou, Nabil Zary, and Andrzej A. Kononowicz , it talks about the used of digital devices and technologies to improve education for students. There has been tests done resulting in great outcomes, with exceptional flexibility for everyone going at their own pace. The article mention about students experiences through online schooling, medical students, and job training. The problem with using digital devices and technology is that it will require self learning with little interaction which can lead to undeveloped leadership skills, communication skills and team skills. It first started with prototyping a program for elementary schools to see if it would increase kids' learning. The prototype lead to good outcomes as well as new improvement on the devices.
My question is, with new technology improving everyday and online schooling becoming more popular, how would in-person teaching benefit or lose from this new trend in the future?
