Introduction/Objective Case-based learning has been utilized for implementation in learning pathological and clinical features of diseases in an integrated, facile manner for some time now. We applied certain novel technological advances to improve case-based learning - short clinical vignettes describing all pertinent pathologic features with the help of digital pathology images - including both negative and positive findings. The clinical cases combined with digital pathological and radiological images and labs were uploaded on Moodle platform for student access, to be followed later by an online interactive discussion via Zoom. Methods/Case Report Clinical cases meticulously woven with digital pathological and radiological images and labs were centralized on 3 fundamental competencies – disease processes, systemic pathology and diagnostic &amp; therapeutic pathology. This was followed by corresponding Q-A session using the “breakout room” feature of Zoom to form a differential diagnosis, reach a final diagnosis and discuss appropriate management options. Students exited the breakout rooms after individual groupwork to return to the main Zoom session for final discussion. Novel web- based tools, social media assistance, and other online resources were utilized to enhance the online learning experience. Results (if a Case Study enter NA) Student feedback confirmed that our online instructional methodology was incredibly stimulatory, particularly in topics that were difficult to grasp using traditional pedagogical methods. Summative and formative assessments indicated performance gain, enhanced motivation, improved critical thinking and evolved ability to solve clinical cases. Drawbacks included irregular student participation, lack of face-to-face interaction, network issues and time differences. Conclusion Our pathology pedagogy provides flexibility and self-directed learning skills, while simultaneously covering the geographical limitations. This not only helps students in developing critical clinical reasoning, but also enables them to acquire life-long learning and problem-solving skills. The technique proved to be a powerful educational tool that facilitated an interactive learning experience beyond the classroom setting, with integration of multidisciplinary aspects in learning Pathology. Additionally, the communication competency was also covered during case discussion among students, promoting literary, verbal and team-working capabilities.
