Other Comments:
This is a good study in a novel and interesting way of teaching. Here results are not very encouraging but it only shows there is scope for changing few things like

The video diary can split into presenting complaints, then take students opinion

examination of patient and ask for the finding or opinion of students, ask for treatment

Treatment prescription can be shown

finally the patients perspective his changes in life or worsening, financial social changes.

This might make a sea change in the approach of students towards patients
