Vuk, Jasna; Anders, Michael E.; Rhee, Sung W. – Advances in Physiology Education, 2022
Engaging preclinical medical students in the curriculum is challenging. To address this challenge, the investigators developed and implemented self-paced polling with recorded lectures, in which students answered audience response questions at their own pace. In 2021, we retrospectively assigned second-year medical students (N = 165) as Active or…

Rathner, Joseph A.; Schier, Mark A. – Advances in Physiology Education, 2020
Flipped classroom teaching has been used by many educators to promote active learning in higher education. This andragogy is thought to increase student engagement by making them more accountable for their learning and increase time on task in the classroom. While there are several systematic reviews that point to improved student results, it…

Simcock, D. C.; Chua, W. H.; Hekman, M.; Levin, M. T.; Brown, S. – Advances in Physiology Education, 2017
A cohort of first-year biology students was surveyed regarding their opinions and viewing habits for live and recorded lectures. Most respondents (87%) attended live lectures as a rule (attenders), with 66% attending more than two-thirds of the lectures. In contrast, only 52% accessed recordings and only 13% viewed more than two-thirds of the…

Alimoglu, Mustafa Kemal; Yardim, Selda; Uysal, Hilmi – Advances in Physiology Education, 2017
In our medical school, we changed from a lecture-based method to a team-based learning (TBL) method to teach "polyneuropathies" in the neurology clerkship starting from the 2014 to 2015 academic year. Real patients were used instead of written scenarios in TBL sessions. This study aimed to compare former lecture-based and the current TBL…

Miller, Cynthia J.; Metz, Michael J. – Advances in Physiology Education, 2014
Ask any professor to describe a "first-row student," and you will likely hear a description of an engaged learner who pays attention during class, takes notes, and asks questions. A research study from the 1980s has indicated that undergraduate students sitting in the front and center of the classroom score higher than other students.…

Miller, Cynthia J.; McNear, Jacquee; Metz, Michael J. – Advances in Physiology Education, 2013
In engaging lectures, also referred to as broken or interactive lectures, students are given short periods of lecture followed by "breaks" that can consist of 1-min papers, problem sets, brainstorming sessions, or open discussion. While many studies have shown positive effects when engaging lectures are used in undergraduate settings,…

Breckler, Jennifer; Yu, Justin R. – Advances in Physiology Education, 2011
This article describes a new hands-on, or "kinesthetic," activity for use in a physiology lecture hall to help students comprehend an important concept in cardiopulmonary physiology known as oxygen carrying capacity. One impetus for designing this activity was to address the needs of students who have a preference for kinesthetic…
