Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 6
Abstract
Background: The Study of Anatomy for a medical student is the basic building block for studying other branches of Medical Science and traditionally it has been taught by chalk and talk method and cadaveric dissection. The rapid growth of information technology has also make a space in different modes of teaching of subjects of medicine. So, we have reached the position where there should be a debate over the most effective method of lecture delivery. Aim: Thus the aim of this study was to compare overall satisfaction and effectiveness of chalk and board method versus power point presentation as a lecture delivering method for teaching gross anatomy so far as Student’s perception are concerned. METHODS: This was a questionnaire based study where 100 first professional MBBS students of SKIMS Medical College Bemina, were asked to fill anonymously a questionnaire about their perceptions of these two lecture delivery methods. The comparative analysis was done on each selected question as well as on overall satisfaction of the two lecture delivery methods. Results: The good majority of the first year medical students (62.92%) preferred the traditional method of teaching gross anatomy so far as overall satisfaction of lecture delivery is concerned. However on many questions, PPT was preferred over Chalk & Talk method. Conclusion: A good majority of first year medical students clearly preferred the conventional board teaching for delivery method but also accepted the advantages of using PPT. So PPT mode of teaching gross anatomy should be carefully amalgamated with the Traditional method of chalk & Talk
