This study compared two educational methods. Participants were assigned to participate in a 360-degree experience or a slideshow presentation. The 360-degree video group included a brain and MS program. The comparison group was given a slideshow presentation with the same information. Participants viewed the 360-degree program or the slideshow presentation only once. The online-based materials consisted of a demographic form (age, gender, race and ethnicity, and name of school), knowledge questionnaires, and an experiential learning scale. Pre-intervention, participants were asked about demographic information, whether they had previous experience with MS, the science classes they completed in high school and college, and their knowledge of the human brain and MS pathophysiology. At both pre- and post-intervention, participants completed the Multiple Sclerosis Magnetic Resonance Imaging Knowledge Questionnaire (MSMRIKQ) and the Multiple Sclerosis Knowledge Questionnaire (MSKQ). At post-intervention, participants completed a lesson experiential questionnaire about their experience viewing either the 360-degree video or the slideshow presentation. Permission to use the three instruments was obtained from their respective copyright holders.
