Orthopaedic undergraduate teaching in Hong Kong: Does what teachers want align with what students want?

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Orthopaedic undergraduate teaching in Hong Kong largely consists of didactic teaching and ward-based bedside teaching, despite being a ‘surgical’ specialty. With newer teaching activities introduced by teachers to enhance learning, students’ perception of these newer learning modalities may not be in sync with teachers’ expectation. In particular, the practical procedural aspect remains unsatisfactory with large proportion of students expressing lack of confidence in performing procedures that teachers deemed to be core skills. Aligning students’ and teachers’ expectation and perception could improve the overall satisfaction and competency in orthopaedic teaching.
