Promoting Pedagogical Resilience: Unveiling the Efficacy of Synchronous Online Lectures Compared to Traditional Methods From the Students’ Vantage Point Amidst the COVID-19 Pandemic - Smita R. Sorte et al; Cureus

The findings of this study reveal that students have a moderate level of satisfaction with synchronous online lectures, as indicated by a mean score of 64.04%. While these lectures provide flexibility and promote independence, they require students to exhibit higher levels of self-motivation, discipline, and self-directed learning. However, the online format poses challenges for effective communication and technical issues. Addressing the challenges of technology use, teacher training, and student engagement can enhance the effectiveness of online teaching and ensure that it complements traditional teaching methods, ultimately promoting pedagogical resilience in medical education.
