Study of the impact of introducing a multimedia learning tool in podiatric medical courses.

These findings suggest that Osmosis holds promise as a tool to support podiatric medical student learning. While the lack of statistically significant differences in final exam scores warrants further investigation, the positive student perceptions, high engagement rates, and increased odds of high scores in specific areas indicate the potential for Osmosis to positively impact academic outcomes. Therefore, a multimedia-based resource like Osmosis appears to show promise as a tool to support podiatric medical education. The limitations inherent in the quasi-experimental design necessitate further studies to confirm its effectiveness and long-term impact on podiatric medical education.
