Abstract

Objective: This study focused on emergency medicine (EM) registrars at King Saud Medical City to assess their preferred learning methods during extracurricular time. Also, the relationship between certain demographic characteristics and preferred learning modalities was investigated.
Methods: In this descriptive study, a validated questionnaire designed and tested by Utah University in the United States of America was used. It was a simple survey designed to cover all important points in short time. The survey was distributed using the online tool SurveyMonkey.
Results: This study results found that podcasts were the most chosen modality by participants as it was beneficial and they spent their time more on podcasts. Age of participants was shown to be associated with use of internet and Google as learning tool.
Conclusion: It was found that participants chose podcasts as a learning channel more than other modalities of EM registrars at all levels and their extracurricular educational programs. Age was substantially correlated with less use of Google and online searches for educational purposes.

Key words: Learning preferences, emergency medicine, registrars, learning time, electronic learning methods
