The ability to conduct research and utilize its findings has been a fundamental competency for medical students, often assessed through the observable research outcomes. This study aims to compare the research competency of medical students before, during, and after the COVID-19 pandemic to explore the future direction of research education in medical schools. We collected information on research outcomes submitted by medical students as graduation requirements during the pre-COVID-19, pandemic, and post-COVID-19 periods based on the duration of social distancing.

In this study, we introduce a novel approach that integrates interpretability techniques from both traditional machine learning (ML) and deep neural networks (DNN) to quantify feature importance using global and local interpretation methods. Our method bridges the gap between interpretable ML models and powerful deep learning (DL) architectures, providing comprehensive insights into the key drivers behind model predictions, especially in detecting outliers within medical data. We applied this method to analyze COVID-19 pandemic data from 2020, yielding intriguing insights.

Integrating science education with social justice is vital for preparing students to critically address significant societal issues like climate change and pandemics. This study examines the effectiveness of socioscientific system modeling as a tool within Justice-Centered Science Pedagogy (JCSP) to enhance middle school students' understanding of social justice science issues. It focuses on how system modeling can scaffold students' reasoning about complex social systems, informed by their lived experiences, cultural backgrounds, and social identities.
