Article Synopsis
- Breaking bad news is a challenging communication task in medicine, prompting a study on the effectiveness of an active learning course for fifth-year students.
- Students were split into two groups: one received hands-on training with multidisciplinary discussions and video workshops, while the other only attended traditional classes.
- Results showed that the actively trained group scored significantly higher in communication skills during practical exams, indicating the training's effectiveness, but further research is needed for long-term validation.
