| Popis: | In May 2019, the World Health Assembly, in an unprecedented move, endorsed the inclusion of traditional medicine in the International Classification of Diseases, 11th Revision. In Japan, traditional medicine (known as Kampo) is regulated by the government and prescribed by over 90% of physicians along with modern medicine under the national health insurance system. Although Kampo education must be included in Japan’s core medical curricula, there are significant challenges to implementation. In the educational context, the flipped classroom teaching method has received considerable attention in recent years. This study developed a Kampo e-learning program and verified the effectiveness of a flipped classroom using Kampo e-learning. The Kampo e-learning Committee determined three courses and assigned an administrator for each. The administrators appointed lecturers who developed Kampo e-learning lessons. Physicians, pharmacists, medical students, and pharmacy students were asked to participate in the e-learning program, and their comments and suggestions were collected after program completion. The flipped classroom was evaluated by implementing Kampo e-learning in the Kampo session with fourth-year students at Keio University School of Medicine in Japan. Seven courses were created, including four based on volunteer suggestions. The ‘Systematic Kampo Curricula’ featured 88 lessons developed by 54 Kampo specialists. Out of 118 fourth-year medical students who participated in the flipped classroom, 113 registered for the Kampo e-learning program, 100 attended the session, and 88 answered the post-session questionnaire. Among the students who answered the questionnaire, 86.4% were satisfied with the flipped classroom, 79.5% replied that the program made them understand Kampo and 80.7% stated that it should be adopted. The flipped classroom using Kampo e-learning program was shown to be attractive in one medical school. Further expanded study is necessary in the near future to reveal the usefulness of the flipped classroom of Kampo learning. |
