Abstract

Artificial Intelligence is profoundly transforming innovation and development in healthcare and education. In this study, we developed an AI-empowered blended learning model for disaster medicine. Leveraging the Rain Classroom platform, we established a comprehensive intelligent teaching support system covering the entire learning cycle—pre-class, in-class, and post-class. Through AI-driven enhancements, the model enables intelligent resource allocation, personalized learning paths, and high-fidelity simulation of practical training scenarios. Moreover, it addresses key challenges in traditional disaster medicine education, including fragmented knowledge delivery, insufficient practical training environments, and limited evaluation methods. Ultimately, the model enhances both the efficiency and effectiveness of disaster medicine education.
