Group Dynamics in Surgical Skill Training

Participants will be paired in teams at the introduction. Participants will be instructed to train and supervise each other in pairs and will receive information on how to give constructive feedback. Participants will practice in pairs during on-site classes and encouraged to train in pairs during the self-regulated training at home. At the on-site classes, participants will be instructed to practice with their partner, during the expert-guided self-training and receive all feedback in pairs. Participants will train at the same table with space for two people. Outside the classroom, participants will decide themselves when and how often they will meet to practise. Participants are instructed to actively observe his or her partner while practising and are encouraged to discuss their performance and any difficulties they encounter. Testing will be done individually. With the training log, the investigators will measure whether the participants train in pairs at home as instructed.
