Innovative Learning Techniques

At Vanguard University School of Medicine (VUSOM), we utilize advanced teaching methodologies, including Medical Simulation Games, 3D Medical Animation, and state-of-the-art Educational Software. These innovative tools provide an interactive and immersive learning experience, enhancing students' understanding of complex medical concepts and preparing them for real-world clinical practice.

Integrated Curriculum

VUSOM students follow a well planned, innovative and integrated curriculum, which makes interdisciplinary connections more effective, thereby enhancing the learning process. It breaks down learning impediments and stimulates student focus leading to progress. The 'Layered Learning' process in addition to the balanced curriculum combines different disciplines, encourages and facilitates critical thinking as opposed to learning distinctive and isolated topics of medicine.

3D MEDICAL ANIMATION

Our easy-to-access 3D medical animations simplify complex topics in medicine, clarifying concepts and thereby making them more fascinating and stimulating for students. The animations deliver a rich experience by visually depicting functional and dynamic mechanisms of the human body. It explains more in less time and depicts the intricacies of medical science that cannot be replicated by a 2D illustration, diagram, photograph or even live action.

MEDICO SKILLS

Medico Skills is VUSOM's computer-based evaluation system which reinforces our focus on competency-based medical education. It helps students assess and improve their clinical skills in their own time.

3D ANATOMY MODELS AND MANIKINS

It develops an environment of kinesthetic learning from the early years of a student's medical career. Most of our manikins are integrated with the medical video games thereby students get scored for their performance.

MEDICAL SIMULATION GAMES

VUSOM students have access to medical video games based on medical problems and their management. The games develop the players acquired reflexes to manage patients in real life situations. The activities range from basic clinical evaluation to emergency management and surgical procedures.

COMPUTER AIDED REVISION AND EVALUATION (CARE)

CARE is an app-based platform to help VUSOM students revise their attended lessons in an interactive manner. This helps to shift the learned information to the long-term memory of the students on a daily basis.
