Real-life scenario blended teaching approach for nurturing inquisitive learning of central nervous system in medical students

Abstract

In this report, a novel teaching methodology, “real-life scenario (RLS) blended teaching” is described and its effectiveness in facilitating inquisitive learning in undergraduate medical students is evaluated. Students exposed to RLS sessions blended with multiple miniassignments, peer discussions, multiple formative assignments, and facilitator feedback sessions performed well in the summative assessments compared with those exposed to RLS sessions and assignments or exposed to traditional teaching alone. Students preferred active teaching-learning techniques over the traditional method.
