“Love the series. So great to have these excellent lectures, and it provides a great sense of community in an otherwise very isolating time. I’ve found it incredibly helpful to have the lectures loaded on the web page for later viewing as there are most often other conflicts that prevent viewing in real time. Please continue this wonderful effort. It is very helpful to have the other lecturer moderate the questions so as to allow the primary lecturer to proceed uninterrupted. For especially timely or relevant questions, the moderator can interrupt and interject, but otherwise, I prefer it if the lecturer doesn’t constantly interrupt themselves to answer questions throughout the lecture as this makes it difficult to keep on the flow of ideas that they have organized. This is of course up to the presenter to decide, but just a bit of feedback.” – Resident, Iowa City, IA

This would assure all topics are covered and prevent repetition (as some of the lectures currently scheduled appear to be similar titles. I have enjoyed the lectures that include the online (via text) polls. Keeps us engaged and informs us of other practices. Overall this has been AWESOME and I appreciate it greatly.

Alternatively have, for example, a Laryngologist from another institution do a Q&A with the presenting Laryngologist.” – Resident, NYC

It helps to keep up engagement.” – Resident, Baltimore, MD

This format is very collaborative and interactive. I truly hope that collaborative didactics become the new norm well after this coronavirus is behind us. I respect that the presentations are the property of the presenters, but for presenters who are willing to share, it would be great to have the slides in printable form for notes and annotations.” – Resident, Detroit, MI
“These lectures are very helpful. I have watched every one so far. There is sometimes a fair amount of overlap between lectures, but I think that is difficult to avoid, and repetition can be helpful. I find the more targeted, narrowly focused lectures are more helpful than the broad overview of several topics. I have liked the lectures that include surgical techniques given we are losing a lot of operative time during this pandemic. Thank you so much for organizing this series. It is a wonderful resource for us and is truly appreciated.” – Resident, San Francisco CA
