The document discusses various proposals to reduce the gap between theoretical and practical knowledge for medical students in India. Some of the key proposals mentioned include using gaming to simulate real-life situations, conducting real-life case study sessions weekly, and evaluating students through medical marathons that simulate a day in a hospital with increasingly challenging situations. The goal is to better prepare students for clinical practice by providing more opportunities to apply their book knowledge to realistic scenarios while still in school.

How can we reduce the gap between theoretical and practical knowledge in the study of medicine in India? Conduct classes in a hospital Internships from first year Simulation of hospital environment Simulation of hospital environment Online Courses Case study method of teaching Experienced doctors should take classes Courses on real world situations Part-time jobs in clinical environment mandatory See real life videos for every chapter Shadow doctors compulsorily every day Shadows doctors before starting medical school Change pattern of exam to include more real life situations Students could be asked to start clinics while studying No fixed textbooks. Find your own problems No fixed textbooks. Find your own problems Gaming method of studying Studying from television shows Medical case competitions Mandatory training on graduation Medical marathons Specializations should be allowed only after 2 years of working in general practice Change internship model to give more responsibility to students Video classes where students are always seeing what is going on in hospitals. Different teachers every week Focus on guest lectures Both Patients and senior doctors score students Increase internship duration Have only internships
• Games can be used to simulate a real life situations so that students get used to applying theoretical knowledge in practical environments 1. Use gaming to simulate real life situations • To understand application of theoretical knowledge, case study sessions can be organized every week which will encourage students to explore beyond what is taught. 2. Real life case studies model of teaching • Instead of the usual theoretical written exams and interview based exams, medical marathon can be arranged to evaluate preparedness of students in real life. The marathon can simulate real life hospital environment in which the student has to spend a day and face more and more challenging situations as the day progresses. 3. Medical Marathons as a method of evaluation
