摘要
WhatsApp is a popular platform for social interaction. We used it as an e-learning platform for medical education. We discussed five clinical cases on a WhatsApp group with undergraduates; it increased their knowledge in the subject significantly (P<0.001). Participants accepted it well and perceived that it has improved their problem solving skill and stimulated them for self-study.
