Teaching Neurology to Potential Learners Through Remedial Modular Teaching

Abstract

The present study entitled, "Teaching Neurology to potential Learners through remedial Modular Teaching" was carried out on 56 potential learners who scored < 35% marks in their part completion examination on Neurology. The pre test was taken before the study. Students were taught 4 topics of Neurology through interactive didactic lectures using remedial modules. Students were also given guidelines on question paper writing skill and skill of time management. The post test was taken after the lectures. The learning gains, and feedback was taken. It was observed that the absolute learning gain was 43.97% (significant), relative learning gain was 232.40 (significant) and g factor was 0.45 (>0.3: significant). The feedback analysis for close ended questions was done for remedial modular teaching process, after taking their feedback on Likert scale. The rating average was more than 3 (significant) for all the questions of likert scale. The participants expressed satisfaction on clarity of concept, confidence in writing questions paper and utility of time management while solving the question paper. Students expressed marked utility of remedial modular teaching over conventional didactic teaching. It is concluded that the use of remedial modular teaching for neurology to potential learners was significantly useful based on learning gains and feedback analysis.
