Journal Title: International Journal of Practical Nursing - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 3
Abstract
The aim of the study was to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of lecture cum demonstration and lecture cum video assisted teaching method of undergraduate nursing students. A true experimental study with two group pre-test post-test design was adopted. Simple random sampling technique was used to draw 60 subjects from a class of 100 students. A Pre-test for all study participants to assess the knowledge regarding neurological assessment was conducted. After Lecture session selected subjects were randomly assigned into Video assisted teaching group (n=30) and Demonstration teaching group (n=30). Demonstration of neurological assessment was administered to Demonstration group and a prerecorded videography of the same procedure was presented to Video group separately. Post-test was performed using Knowledge questionnaire to assess the knowledge and Objective Structured Clinical Examination was conducted to assess skills of the students. The collected data analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics. The findings revealed that there was no significant difference between subjects of Demonstration and Video group in terms of baseline characteristics. The mean post-test Knowledge score 20.20±2.9 was significantly higher (p=0.001) than that of mean pre-test knowledge score 17.60±2.9 in Demo group. The mean post-test knowledge score 22.87±3.2 was significantly higher (p<0.001) than the mean pre-test knowledge score 17.90±2.4 in Video group. The mean gain in knowledge score of Video group (4.9±3.6) was significantly (p=0.016) higher than that of gain in knowledge in Demo group (2.6±3.6). Both the teaching methods resulted in significant improvement in knowledge scores; however Video assisted teaching method was found to be effective as compared to Demonstration method in terms of gain in knowledge scores. Video assisted teaching can be an effective tool not only due to its easy to share and self-teaching possibility but also effective in improving knowledge compared to other teaching techniques.
