Abstract

The humanities approach is important in medical education, and various teaching methods are being studied to maximize the effect of medical humanities education. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of subject suitability on the usefulness and satisfaction of learning in the humanities class through an online discussion method in the urogenital system. A total of 60 responses from medical school students were used and analyzed. In the survey results using the 5-point Likert scale, the mean (±standard deviation) of subject suitability was 4.41 (±0.72), learning usefulness was 4.35 (±0.74), and learning satisfaction was 4.23 (±0.72). As a result of analyzing the correlation between each variable, the degree of subject suitability had a high positive correlation with learning usefulness (r=0.864, p<0.001). The correlation between subject suitability and learning satisfaction (r=0.819, p<0.001) also showed a high positive correlation. There was also a positive correlation between learning usefulness and learning satisfaction (r=0.806, p<0.001). As a result of simple regression analysis, learning usefulness and learning satisfaction of learners increased as subject suitability increased in online discussion learning. In conclusion, the application of the online discussion method on appropriate topics is a learning method that can expect high learning usefulness and satisfaction in operating medical humanities education, and it is thought that it can be usefully applied to medical education for similar purposes in the future.
