title: Survey of the participants of EEG teaching courses provided by Japanese Society of Neurology: current state and gradual evolution for EEG teaching in the last 5 years.
abstract: We collected and analyzed the questionnaires from the participants in the annual EEG hands-on (5 times) and the regional EEG seminar (6 times). The board-certified neurologists among participants in the regional EEG seminar were always more than those in the annual EEG hands-on. Participants in the regional EEG seminar were more involved in EEGs than those in the annual EEG hands-on. The highly satisfactory lectures in the annual EEG hands-on were "normal EEG" and those in the regional EEG seminar were "EEG of epilepsy". The highly requested lectures in the annual EEG hands-on were "how to read EEG" and those in the regional EEG seminar were "EEG of epilepsy". By taking the needs of the participants into account, we only could provide more efficient teaching seminars to improve EEG reading skills of neurologists.
