Brief Summary
|
A randomized comparative study will be
conducted among the phase II MBBS students after obtaining approval from the
Institute Ethics Committee. After receiving written informed consent, the
students will be randomly allocated to one of two groups: control group (using
conventional pedagogy i.e. didactic lecture-based learning) or experimental
group (using novel teaching-learning methods). A pretest will be administered
to both the groups to have baseline assessment of the knowledge of the topic.
After completion of respective teaching-learning sessions, a post-test
(immediately and 15 days after the session) will be administered and scores
will be calculated. In addition, students’ feedback regarding novel
teaching-learning methods will be obtained with the help of a post intervention
survey. Data will be analysed using descriptive statistics and student’s t-test
wherever appropriate. |
