Musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSUS) is a complex procedure and requires lifelong theoretical and practical training to ensure continued professional development.
Currently, the teaching approach for experts in MSUS is theoretical preparation first and then hands-on training, the "Tell-Then-Do" approach. The existing literature on optimizing training for experts is sparse, and it is unknown if the training intervention Discovery Learning could be a more effective teaching method for this group of learners.

| MSUS experts | Physicians with extensive experience with MSUS (performed more than 1000 examinations). |

| Discovery learning (DL) | Other | DL makes the trainee practice before giving them instruction, "Do-Then-Tell", thereby promoting their ability to use and build upon their existing knowledge. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| How do experts in MSUS approach a new and unfamiliar MSUS task? | All performances will be analyzed to examine how the experts solve the MSUS case, e.g., do they use the available material etc? More specifically, how much time (in seconds) do they use on different problem-solving methods such as "information seeking", "trial and error", and "systematic evaluation". | January 2023 |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| How do the experts respond to DL? | i.e., are they comfortable changing the learning situation from "Tell-Then-Do" to "Do-Then-Tell"? The participants will fill out a post-course questionnaire. 10 questions to be answered on a 5 point Likert scale from (range 1-5). | January 2023 |
