Chalk & Board or Power Point Presentation – Students View towards Method of Teaching Anatomy

Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 10

Abstract

Abstract: Traditionally most of the lectures are taken with chalk and board in India. However with economic growth, the use of computer assisted techniques is inevitable. The use of power point presentations has been increasingly adopted by many of the medical colleges.Present study assesses the student’s perspectives and preferences for chalk and board and power point methods of teaching.Twenty four lectures were delivered to First year M.B;B.S students. Students were given a questionnaire seeking their opinions about helpfulness of teaching tools.We feel that PPT should be used as supplementary to enhance the efficacy of teaching. As suggested by recognizable number of students, both methods should be used in a proper combination, as per need of the topic. Keywords:Students, Teaching, Chalk and Board, PPT, Method
