Tactile sensations have historically been hard to convey artificially. The range of possible sensations is much larger than other senses since the skin and the body itself have various sensory organs for different stimuli, such as dry/wet, hot/cold, hard/soft, pressure, position, vibration, and so on. Today, most feedback devices on the market are engineered to reproduce the mechanical sensatio...

This study evaluated video scoring and feedback about scoring as a safety intervention among 6 nursing staff. The dependent variable was safety behavior on one-person transfers. Following baseline, 5 nursing staff participated in an information phase. A video scoring phase was then introduced for all 6. A feedback phase was added for 2 participants. All participants experienced treatment withdr...

PURPOSE To determine if video review of student performance during patient encounters is an effective tool for medical student learning. METHODS MULTIPLE BIBLIOGRAPHIC DATABASES THAT INCLUDE MEDICAL, GENERAL HEALTH CARE, EDUCATION, PSYCHOLOGY, AND BEHAVIORAL SCIENCE LITERATURE WERE SEARCHED FOR THE FOLLOWING TERMS: medical students, medical education, undergraduate medical education, educatio...

BACKGROUND Standardized patients are widely used in training of medical students, both in teaching and assessment. They also frequently lead complete training sessions delivering physical examination skills without the aid of faculty teaching staff-acting as "patient instructors" (PIs). An important part of this training is their ability to provide detailed structured feedback to students which...

Video-endoscopy (Figure 1), a mode of minimally invasive surgery, has proven to be significantly less invasive to the patient. However, it creates a much more complex operation environment that requires the surgeon to operate through a video interface. Visual feedback control and image interpretation can be difficult. Poor visual feedback in video-endoscopy prolongs the operation time, increase...

This paper describes a new feedback scheme suitable for block based video transmission as it is in use for H.261 video transmission over IP networks. The new scheme inherently provides support for highly unreliable communication links and thus improves packet switched video transmission over wireless links. The evaluation of the new feedback scheme has been done by means of a prototype implemen...

BACKGROUND Video-based feedback has been shown to aid knowledge retention, skills learning and improve team functionality. We explored the use of video-based feedback and low fidelity simulation for training rural healthcare workers along the Thailand-Myanmar border and Papua New Guinea (PNG) to manage medical emergencies effectively. METHODS Twenty-four study participants were recruited from...

Video-capture virtual reality (VR) systems are gaining popularity as intervention tools. To date, these platforms offer visual and audio feedback but do not provide haptic feedback. We contend that adding haptic feedback may enhance the quality of intervention for various theoretical and empirical reasons. This study aims to integrate haptic-tactile feedback into a video capture system (GX VR),...

BACKGROUND Constructive feedback is an essential element of the educational process, helping trainees reach their maximum potential and increasing their skill level. Video-based feedback has been described as highly effective in various educational contexts. The present study aimed to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of video-based, on-ward supervision for final year students in a cli...

The present study intended to evaluate EFL students' performance on a traditional method of writing assessment in comparison to an alternative assessment technique by taking into account the effects of teacher and peer feedback. Moreover, the attitudes of the participants regarding assessment procedures and activities were focused in this study. To this end, thirty male and female language lear...
