Abstract: We evaluated the way in which medical students interacted with a surgical education Website. Ten medical students on their paediatric surgery rotation were asked to study online a chapter on intussusception in young children, for a period of 1 h. The computer was connected by video link to a video-recorder that recorded their navigation movements, i.e. navigation time, time spent in front of each page, stepwise, progressive exploration of the surgical contents, and use of interactive links. The students were asked to complete a questionnaire to identify their overall competency in computers and Internet navigation capabilities. The mean time spent viewing the entire Website was 48 min (range 31–63) and the mean time spent on the assigned chapter was 38 min (range 8–53). Each page out of 14 within the chapter was visited a mean of 1.8 times (range 0–10). Access to video selections occurred after a mean of 10 min after beginning the session. A connection was made to the video a mean of 2.3 times per session. The mean time spent viewing video footage was 9 min (24% of the time spent viewing the chapter). The questionnaire results showed that few students regularly accessed the Internet for educational purposes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
