Introduction: Increased faculty and resident responsibilities have led to the decreased time available for teaching clinical skills to medical students. Numerous advances in education and simulation have attempted to obviate this problem; however, documented success is lacking. Our objective was to describe a novel fresh cadaver-based, student-driven procedural skills lab and to compare the educational effectiveness of student instructors to the senior instructor (SI). Methods: This was a prospective study performed at an academic medical center. A pilot program, “Students Teaching Students,” was introduced where four trained first-year medical students (TMS) instructed 41 other untrained first-year medical students in technical procedures. This study compared the teaching evaluations of the SI with the TMS teaching equivalent procedures. Paired t-test was used to determine statistically significant changes in procedural confidence between pre- and post-training. Utilizing a post-training questionnaire, average post-training confidence improvement values and objective post-training test scores of the participants were compared between TMS and SI, using a 2 sample t-test. Statistical significance was considered as a P-value |
