Introduction 

With the onset of the Covid 19 pandemic, there was a need to reduce contacts in the clinic in order to minimise the risk of infection for patients, staff and students. Therefore, a hybrid block practical (virtual with short face-to-face phase) was created to maintain teaching for medical students. The aim of this study was to evaluate student evaluation results for this new form of teaching.

Method 

Student evaluation results for the ENT internship of 2018-2020 (face-to-face teaching) were compared with those from 2020-2021 (hybrid internship). In addition, the evaluation and acceptance of the hybrid internship was statistically compared over the course of the pandemic. The survey of the students was conducted in anonymised form (evasys analysis) following the internship.

Results 

The hybrid internships showed constant, very good evaluation results, which were significantly better in several categories (punctuality of lecturers, structure, knowledge gain and learning atmosphere) than in the previously conducted face-to-face internship.

However, over the course of the pandemic, student comments in the evaluation indicated a decrease in acceptance of virtual teaching and an increasing desire for face-to-face hours at the bedside, in the outpatient clinic and in the operating rooms.

Conclusion 

The conversion of the internship to virtual teaching did not mean a reduction in teaching quality for the students. A permanent virtualisation of teaching is not to be aimed at, since manual-practical skills as well as doctor-patient interactions can only be learned and trained in the clinic. However, the establishment of an internship with virtual parts seems to be useful even after the pandemic.
