Modified tutorials in Pharmacology for Medical students using case based learning and multiple choice questions

Background: Active student centred learning is the need of the hour. Objectives being to compare the difference in the post test scores between students exposed to Case based learning (CBL) and Multiple choice questions (MCQ) (learning tool) during tutorials in Pharmacology for 2nd MBBS students. To understand the perception of students regarding teaching learning tools used in the study.Methods: This was a mixed methods study. Sixty eight students were divided into 2 groups. Hypertension and angina was discussed as CBL for Group 1 and as MCQ (Learning tool) for Group 2. One week later, cross over was done, Thyroid and Diabetes was discussed as MCQ for Group 1 and as CBL for Group 2. Post-test MCQ, pre validated questions (Likert scale) and open ended questions (qualitative) were distributed. Statistical Analysis: Difference in the post test scores in both the groups was analyzed using independent sample t test.Results: There was no significant difference in post test scores between CBL and MCQ groups. Questionnaire analysis suggested that both the methods provoked self-learning (45%). Thematic analysis demonstrated the positive experiences like motivated self-learning, clinical application, better understanding than theory classes and drawbacks being time consuming and fear of presentation.Conclusions: Since the study included both qualitative and quantitative analysis, the results can be elucidated comprehensively. This study implies that CBL and MCQ are effective and can be implemented into the curriculum of Pharmacology. This study can serve as an evidence to incorporate these tools in the curriculum.

A comparative study of two small group teaching methods - tutorials and seminar - as a supplement to lecture classes for 1st year MBBS students

Background: Medical schools in India are changing their educational programs and teaching strategies to ensure that students have active responsibility for their learning process and are prepared for lifelong, self-directed learning. Small group teaching (SGT) is one such tool which helps to make learning process student-centered. In this study, we have assessed the effectiveness of SGTs as a supplement to didactic lecture (DL). Objective: The objective of the study was to compare the effectiveness of tutorials versus seminar as a supplement to lecture class. Materials and Methods: In Department of Physiology, SVIMS, Sri Padmavathi Medical College for Women, a DL class on a topic was taken for 150 1st year MBBS students which were followed by tutorials for one half of students and seminar for other half of students on the same topic. It was done for two topics. An assessment was done each at the end of DL, tutorials, and seminar. Students were also asked to fill a feedback questionnaire about the SGTs on a Likert scale. Results: Tutorials showed statistically significant increase in scores in both the topics (6.955 ± 1.83, P = –0.012 and 6.65 ± 1.78, P = 0.006) whereas seminar showed statistically significant increase in only the first topic as compared to DL (6.84 ± 1.77, P = 0.013 and 6.27 ± 2.09, P = 0.25). There was no significant difference in scores between tutorials and seminar. Likert scale showed positive feedback about SGTs and students wanted more such sessions. Conclusions: Since there was a positive response from students regarding SGTs as a supplement to DL, we would like to adopt a mixed approach with SGT as a component of the overall course to ensure knowledge acquisition and retention by the students.

To Determine the Effectiveness of Case Based Tutorials As Compared To Traditional Tutorials in Microbiology.

Background& Objective: In traditional lecture classes or tutorials students are passive learners, so it is just factual recalling than the reasoning. In case based learning, students take an active part in the discussion and develop a skill for interaction. To test for the effectiveness of Case Based Tutorials (CBL) as compared to traditional tutorials in microbiology. Methodology: A total of 58 students were divided into Batch A and Batch B randomly. Case Based Tutorials was conducted for batch A, and while to batch B traditional tutorials were conducted. Pre test and post test were conducted for both the batches and results were analyzed by unpaired t test. Feedback on CBL sessions was recorded on a pre validated questionnaire. Results: There was significant difference in the knowledge gained by the students as their performance in post test of Case Based tutorial was better as compared to Traditional Tutorial ( P <0.001). 27 (93.10%) students opined that CBL improved their learning skills. Conclusion: CBL can enhance the development of learning skills and can be used for early clinical exposure and better application of microbiology in diagnosis & patient care.

The aim of resent paper is to establish a panorama of the definition and origin of such tools, the available repositories and the information program also available for its creation.

The Effect of Several Problem-based Learning Tutorials on Clinical Abilities Before and After Graduation / 医学教育

We examined the effects of several problem-based learning (PBL) tutorials on the development of clinical abilities among medical students. In 1988, 2 years before our university implemented the PBL tutorial curriculum, one to three trial tutorials were used for a portion of the students in the 1st through 3rd years to identify a suitable tutorial education system for Japanese students. To examine the effects of these trial tutorials, we sent questionnaires to graduates who had participated in the trial tutorials and to those who had not. We found that graduates who had participated in the trial tutorials were more likely than graduates who had not to report logical thinking capabilities during their undergraduate years and clinical problem-solving abilities at the end of their internship. The results suggest that the use of one or more tutorials is effective in helping students develop logical thinking and problem-solving ability.

The Tutorial System Doesn't Help 1st-Year Students Develop Interests and Proper Attitudes for Studying / 医学教育

We have previously reported that tutorials help medical students develop analytical ability, which is necessary for problem-solving. In this study we analyzed students' assessments of tutorials, results of term-end examinations, and posttutorial questionnaires to determine whether tutorials help students develop interests and proper attitudes for studying. The results suggest that our tutorials are not sufficient for medical students to develop interests and proper attitudes for studying.

Development of Analytical Ability with the Tutorial System for 1st-Year Students at Kanazawa Medical University / 医学教育

We previously reported that the tutorial system had a beneficial effect on our students' scores on term-end examinations in 1994: the assessments of the tutorials correlated positively with the results of the term-end test. This time we analyzed each student's assessment of the tutorials, results of the term-end examinations, and responses to a follow-up questionnaire to determine what abilities the tutorial system helped students develop. The results suggest that tutorials help medical students develop analytical ability: a prerequisite for the problem-solving process.
