Supporting newly graduated medical doctors in managing COVID-19: An evaluation of a Massive Open Online Course in a limited-resource setting

Abstract

The use of a specific quality framework facilitated a comprehensive evaluation of the MOOC's strengths, weaknesses, and areas for future improvements. The participants' satisfaction and pre- and post-test results showed that the current MOOC holds great potential benefit for continuing education for medical interns joining the frontliners during the pandemic. Future implementation should consider increasing the quality of learning resources, scaling up the platform and its technical supports, and enhancing organizational supports.
