description A Cancer Pain Structured Clinical Instruction Module (SCIM), with skills stations incorporating actual cancer patients, has been developed to enhance cancer pain education among our medical students. The Cancer Pain SCIM has not been compared with more traditional cancer pain education, thus the purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness and durability of three educational methods for teaching cancer pain management to medical students compared with a control group. Four consecutive rotations of 32 third-year medical students participated in one of four cancer pain educational strategies: 1) control group with no formal cancer pain education, 2) CD-ROM self-instruction module on cancer pain, 3) a 2-hour Cancer Pain SCIM plus the CD-ROM information, and 4) Cancer Pain SCIM, plus CD-ROM, plus a structured home-hospice patient visit. The effectiveness of the educational interventions was assessed at 4 months post-instruction using a 4-component Cancer Pain Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE). The main findings of this educational study are that: 1) all three educational groups performed better on the Cancer Pain OSCE at 4 months than the control group ( P
