The Indonesian Medical Physiology Olympiad (IMPhO) is the first and the largest competition in the field of physiology at the national level in Indonesia. It was held for the first time in 2017 and has been an annual physiology competition since then. This competition offers several challenges in different forms, including writing tests and oral rounds, to assess both individual and team capabilities in analyzing and comprehensively understanding human physiology. Consequently, the participants in this competition must have an in-depth understanding of human physiology concepts and develop a winning strategy to become a successful team. This article outlines the preparation strategies employed by the participants of IMPhO in 2022 and how they can be adopted to promote effective study skills for medical students. We conducted a semistructured interview with participants and their accompanying lecturers to explore their strategies for the competition. We highlighted several important strategies, including utilizing resource materials effectively, fostering teamwork, providing mentorship, and emphasizing the role of lecturers as team supervisors. These competition-based learning strategies also can be adopted to promote effective study skills in formal curricula for medical students.<b>NEW & NOTEWORTHY</b> This article outlines several important strategies to become a successful team in a physiology competition.

Five cohorts of physiology or anatomy and physiology (A&P) students at four academic institutions took the HCI both at the start of their academic term (pretest) and at the end of their term (posttest). Statistically significant but relatively modest improvements in overall scores were seen from pretest to posttest.

Three attractive distractors that all target one specific misconception, that homeostatic mechanisms are active only when a regulated variable is not at its setpoint, remained persistently attractive except for students of one instructor who directly addressed that misconception in lecture and lab.

This experiential learning activity explored the physiological and emotional responses to exercise with additional mass. Furthermore, this experience sought to address weight bias among EXSS students by promoting a deeper understanding of the difficulties faced by individuals with excess body weight during exercise. Twelve students enrolled in an Exercise for Special Populations course participated in treadmill walking and cycling exercise with and without 15% additional body mass. During exercise, the effects of additional mass on cardiometabolic [e.g., heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen uptake (V̇o<sub>2</sub>), caloric expenditure] and psychological (e.g., perceived exertion, affective response) measures were evaluated. Before the experiential activity, students engaged in a lecture reviewing preparticipation screening, body composition assessment, and exercise testing procedures. Students reported significant differences in physiological and affective responses to exercise between the two modalities, with treadmill walking with additional mass showing increased exertion. Interestingly, student predictions of psychological responses to walking with additional mass were less negative than their actual experiences, highlighting the difficulty of exercising with additional body mass. Postactivity feedback indicated that students felt highly confident in administering exercise tests and reported enhanced awareness of the challenges faced by overweight individuals.

In physiology and related biological sciences, educators have turned to delivering content with virtual teaching technologies, including virtual and augmented reality, simulations, and other immersive platforms. At the University of South Australia, Articulate Storyline, Unity-based simulations, and immersive software platforms have been implemented across the entire Laboratory Medicine program to assist students in learning lecture and laboratory content. The impact of these individual interventions is outlined in this article. In addition, the final year 2024 cohort is the first group who have used simulations throughout their degree program. Evidence of the benefits and impact of the scaffolded implementation of simulations and immersive software was obtained through a Likert-style questionnaire. The deployment of simulations and immersive software across the degree program has significantly enhanced student learning and engagement with the content, effectively bridging the gap between understanding lecture and laboratory content of students in the Laboratory Medicine program.

Thirty-eight students majoring in integrated Chinese and Western medicine were assigned either the traditional teaching method or the combined BOPPPS-CBL approach. Academic performance and questionnaire surveys were employed to evaluate teaching effectiveness and student satisfaction. The results revealed that the BOPPPS-CBL method significantly improved the average score in the pathology experimental course, increasing from 3.36 to 3.64 points (p< 0.05), and eliminated the proportion of C-level students, which decreased from 10% to 0%. Notably, the average score and performance in the pathology theory course also improved, particularly in questions assessing clinical thinking ability. Moreover, questionnaire surveys indicated that the majority of students were satisfied with the BOPPPS-CBL teaching model, with over 80% advocating for its continued use. In conclusion, the integration of the BOPPPS and CBL models in the pathology experimental course achieved significant improvements in both classroom effectiveness and academic performance.
