Dr. Deepakkumar Vinodray Mehta

Abstract :

<p>&nbsp;<b><span lang="EN-GB">Context:</span></b><span lang="EN-GB"> &nbsp;&nbsp;Interactive teaching-learning (T-L) method is popular effective T-L method in small group teaching. There is paradigm change in teaching radiology due to available archival storage of electronic images &amp; cine loops; which are used for learning.&nbsp;</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%"><b><span lang="EN-GB">Objective:</span></b><span lang="EN-GB"> Aim was to idge the gap between learning by video/multimedia resources and by interactive Teaching-Learning session blended with resources by evaluating &amp; comparing them. <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%"><b><span lang="EN-GB">Material and Methods:</span></b><span lang="EN-GB"> </span><span lang="EN-IN">This comparative interventional study was done with eight radiology resident doctors as participants and a faculty observer.&nbsp; Six lectures were taken in 3 modalities &ndash; Ultrasound, CT scan &amp; MRI with one core topic and one non-core topic. All topics were taught first by video lecture and then, interactive session with video.&nbsp;&nbsp; Pre-tests of &nbsp;ten questions were taken before first intervention.&nbsp; </span><span lang="EN-CA">After each lecture session, post-tests and written feedback were taken. &nbsp;</span><span lang="EN-IN">Qualitative Data Analysis of all tests and scaled feedback form was done by Paired T-test with&nbsp; </span><span lang="EN-IN">&nbsp;</span><i>p &nbsp;</i>values&nbsp; &lt; 0.005 were considered significant.<span lang="EN-GB"><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%"><b><span lang="EN-GB">Results:</span></b><span lang="EN-GB"> </span>Significant knowledge improvement (p value &lt; 0.0001) was found in core topic, non-core topic and overall performance after these lectures among all residents. &nbsp;Significantly more joyful learning was experienced by residents for blended interactive lecture with video. <span lang="EN-GB"><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%"><b><span lang="EN-GB">Conclusion:</span></b><span lang="EN-GB"> This study showed promising results for blended interactive T-L method with video in knowledge gain and joyful learning with teacher having role of facilitator. This method should be experimented at multiple teaching institutions for validation.&nbsp;<o:p></o:p></span></p>
