RESUMO
Background: With the advancement of technology young generation i.e. students are friendlier with the electronic media for communication and understanding the concept. While some students still think that the older method such as use of blackboard is the better way for understanding or explains the concept. There are various studies were conducted to understand the perception of students regarding various teaching and learning media in overall curriculum but very few are conducted in students led seminar. Aim and Objectives: To compare the perception of students to the blackboard presentation and to the power point presentation in students led seminar. Material and Methods: A pre-designed, pretested self-administered questionnaire was prepared regarding perception of students on blackboard and PowerPoint presentation in learning process. Total 15 parameters were included in the questionnaire. Results: In this study 54% of students prefer the PowerPoint presentation (PPT) over the blackboard presentation (46%) as the best teaching method in the seminar. With the PPT presentation better demonstrations of clinical conditions and important points can be recalled during summarization of the topic. Blackboard teaching stimulates the interest and more stress on important point is given. Students and presenter’s interaction is better in Blackboard presentation. Conclusion: Our study demonstrates that seminar delivered using PPT was more appreciated and preferred by the students.
RESUMO
Background: A right concept has to be obtained to the medical student’s during their under-graduation periodbecause knowledge of Anatomy forms the basic foundation for most of clinical subjects like Medicine, Surgery,OBG, ENT, Ophthalmology, Orthopedics, Radiology and Neurology. So, we professors need to give a clear tridimensional familiarity of human body using best teaching methodology. In medical education technology, thereis a swift change from Blackboard to virtual simulations and other teaching methodologies. So we have takenfeedback from the students so that the best teaching aid and method can be adopted to improve their academicperformance. The study was designed to know the preferred one amongst teaching aids like traditional chalk &board versus Power Point Presentation among the 1st Year MBBS students.Methods: For a period of 3 years150 MBBS students of 2016-17 batch from Malla Reddy Institute of medicalsciences, Suraram, 2017-2018 batch of Maheshwara Medical College and Hospital, Chitkul village, Patancheru,and 2019-20 batch from Mamata Academy of Medical sciences, Bachupally of Telangana state were selectedand delivered Anatomy lectures for a period of 3 months. The questionnaire was prepared covering the differentaspects of the lecture and was asked to voluntarily go through the questionnaire and evaluate their preferencesafter each class.Results: Out of 450 students of 3 consecutive years Blackboard was preferred by 139 students, 90 studentspreferred PowerPoint Presentation and 183 students preferred both the teaching methods and 38 students wereabsent totally.Conclusion: By using and adopting the best teaching aids the teacher can improve the academic performance ofthe students. Thus, there is a scope for improvisation in medical education and forming a strong basic foundationfor medical graduates
RESUMO
Background: Blackboard teaching is the traditional method of delivery of lecture for MBBS students. Power point presentation is the popular new tool in teaching the subject for the students. An effective teaching method helps to improve the academic performance of the student and also it is useful to implement the knowledge in the future. Aims and objectives: The aim of the study was to compare the student’s perception of blackboard teaching and power point presentation in learning nd Pathology among MBBS 2 year students. Material and methods: A total of 110 MBBS students participated in this study. The study was conducted in department of pathology Gajra raja medical college Gwalior in April 2018 by asking the students to fill a questionnaire regarding their perception about the blackboard teaching and power point presentation in learning Pathology. Results: In this study, the students preferred blackboard (61.81%) as the teaching method compared to power point presentation. In blackboard teaching there is better perception of the subject (64.54%) and there was more involvement in teaching (77.27%) compared to power point teaching. Whereas power point was preferred by the students to make notes (65.46%) compared to blackboard teaching. Conclusion: Blackboard still remains the preferred teaching aid to learn pathology among the MBBS students. Power point presentation is helpful for the students to take down notes.
