INTRODUCTION: As the coronavirus pandemic swept across national and state
borders, institutions of higher learning, including cytology, began closing
campuses and moving instruction online. We have described a method of remotely
teaching cytology in our institution, including using the telecytology concept
used with rapid onsite evaluation and remote conferencing and educational tools
to conduct eCytology learning. This is a cost-effective method to transition a
traditional in-classroom program into online teaching for cytology. It can also
be implemented quickly. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In March 2020, our cytology
program developed a method for teaching cytology remotely. The distance-learning
teaching method included the use of remote conferencing (Zoom platform) and
learning management platforms (Canvas) to present lectures and administer tests.
Remote multihead sessions were conducted by adapting the telecytology rapid
onsite evaluation concept, which attaches a mobile device to the microscope to
transmit live video to remote learners. RESULTS: When asked about their
experience with online learning, the students had responded positively. All the
students indicated a willingness to attend classes remotely in the future, even
when the traditional in-classroom learning option is available. CONCLUSIONS: We
have presented a method for educating students remotely using existing technology
that is affordable and can be implemented quickly by nearly all cytology
education programs.
