Abstract
BACKGROUND:
Online medical education curricula offer new tools to teach and evaluate learners. The effect on educational outcomes of using learner feedback to guide curricular revision for online learning is unknown.
METHODS:

Learner satisfaction and knowledge gains were then compared from before and after implementation of learner feedback.
