Summary
Broadly speaking, virtual learning refers to the delivery of education via the use of digital technology. It encompasses a broad range of learning techniques, communication methods and electronic media to provide a learning experience that is flexible, engaging and learner centred (Ellaway and Masters 2008).
Virtual learning has been possible since the invention of the Internet in the late twentieth century. In 1969, the Open University pioneered the use of emerging digital technologies to increase the accessibility of higher education. Since its inception, the Open University has provided remote learning opportunities for over two million students (The Open University 2021). Over the past few decades, virtual teaching and learning have become increasingly popular within medical education, but their use has been particularly accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic (He et al. 2020). Since the onset of coronavirus, medical educators have used virtual learning to safeguard the delivery of medical curricula, whilst also abiding by social distancing precautions and protecting staff and students from disease transmission. This has been akin to the global upsurgence in the use of telehealth and remote delivery of physical and mental healthcare (Monaghesh and Hajzadeh 2020)
