Introduction: The teaching and practical training of future doctors plays an important role in the university curriculum. Material and techniques: At the Women's Clinic of Saarland University Hospital in Homburg, we developed a five-day block placement concept that focused on learning practical gynecological and obstetric skills rather than simply imparting theoretical knowledge. The success of the block placement was assessed using a standardized questionnaire with the two items "How do you rate your learning outcomes from the placement?" and "The placement increased my interest in gynecology and obstetrics." The assessment was based on a scale of 1 to 6. Outcome: A total of 205 out of 220 students (93.2%) from the winter semester 2022/2023 participated in the evaluation and completed the questionnaire. 198 students (96.6%) rated their learning outcomes from the block internship as very good (1) or good (2), and 201 (98%) reported an increase in their interest in the subject area. Discussion: An overwhelming majority of students rated the practical teaching concept as very good or good, which speaks to the success of this practical teaching format. Nevertheless, the study also has some limitations. For example, only one cohort of medical students was surveyed. Furthermore, when establishing a new teaching concept, there is a risk that participants in an evaluation will not respond objectively, but rather according to the criterion of social desirability. We propose our practice-oriented block placement concept, which focuses on learning skills relevant to the future medical profession, as the standard curriculum for undergraduate teaching in gynecology and obstetrics, in order to inspire students for the field and thus ensure a sufficient number of motivated specialists in our field in the future.
