Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2019, Vol 18, Issue 3

Abstract

Introduction: Today’s medical educators are facing different challenges than their predecessors in teaching tomorrow’s physicians. In the past few decades, changes in health care delivery and advances in medicine have increased demands on academic faculty, resulting in less time for teaching than has previously been the case. Changes in sites of health care delivery, from acute care institutions to community-based settings for chronic care, have required adaptations in educational venues. Materials and Methods: The study will be performed for 1 year in the Department of Physiology, M.G.M Medical College, Jamshedpur. 200 Students aged 18-25 years of either gender who are studying first year MBBS in MGM Medical College, Jamshedpur were included in the study. Non medical students were excluded from the study. Results: A total of 200 students participated in the study. There were 110 female students and 90 male students. Unpaired ‘t’ test was used for analysis of post-test; the results of post-test is given (Table 1) below. The mean mark for E-Learning post-test was 15.8 and lecture was 13.9, which were found to be statistically significant. Conclusion: The study concluded that E-Learning was well accepted by First MBBS students and statistically significant difference in marks was obtained in the post-test. In institution where faculty strength is a limitation, this can be used effectively as an additional tool along with conventional method. It also allows flexibility in student-teacher interactions. In the era of mobile phones, M-Learning is an easy and effective method through which E-Learning can be delivered.
