Abstract: Asynchronous online education designed for
the clinical instruction of medical students is a relatively new area of
pedagogy. An ophthalmology course was created for the 2020-21 academic year
using Articulate Rise software. The target audience was senior medical students
at the College of Medicine who plan to pursue a career in primary care. The
course is delivered in four weekly modules with interactive video, gamification
and self-testing strategies to enhance student engagement. Pre and post course
testing data is available as well as student evaluations.
