Teaching and learning strategies:
The following teaching / learning methods are used to promote better understanding:
Interactive Lectures
Skills session
Self-Directed Study
Interactive lectures:
An interactive lecture is an easy way for instructors to intellectually engage and involve students as active participants in a lecture-
based class of any size. Interactive lectures are classes in which the instructor breaks the lecture at least once per class to have students
participate in an activity that lets them work directly with the material.
The instructor might begin the interactive segment with an engagement trigger that captures and maintains student attention.
Then the instructor incorporates an activity that allows students to apply what they have learned or give them a context for
56
As the instructor feels more comfortable using interactive techniques he or she might begin to call upon a blend of various
In small groups, students observe patients with signs and symptoms in hospital or clinical settings. This helps students to relate
The shy and less articulate are more able to contribute. Students learn from each other. Everyone gets more practice at
expressing their ideas. A two way discussion is almost always more creative than individual thoughts. Social skills are practiced in a
'safe' environment e.g. tolerance, cooperation. This format helps students to clarify concepts acquire skills or attitudes. Students
exchange opinions and apply knowledge gained from lectures, tutorials and self-study. The facilitator role is to ask probing questions,
Skills/Practical session:
Skills relevant to respective module are observed and practiced where applicable in skills laboratory or Laboratories of various
departments.
57
Self-Directed learning (SDL):
Self-directed learning, which involves studying without direct supervision in a classroom/Library, is a valuable way to learn and
is quickly growing in popularity among parents and students. Students’ assume responsibilities of their own learning through individual
study, sharing and discussing with peers, seeking information from Learning Resource Centre, teachers and resource persons within
and outside the college. Students can utilize the time within the college scheduled hours of self-study.
58
Time tables:
The timetables for the module will be shared via Edmodo and the notice boards in advance.
Assessment tools:
Theoretical knowledge is tested by a written examination system constituted by multiple choice questions (MCQs). The assessment of
practical knowledge involves oral, spot, or objective structured practical examinations (OSPE).
Multiple choice questions (MCQs) are a form of assessment for which students are asked to select the best choice from a list of
answers.
MCQ consists of a stem and a set of options. The stem is usually the first part of the assessment that presents the question as a
problem to be solved; the question can be an incomplete statement which requires to be completed and can include a graph, a
picture or any other relevant information. The options are the possible answers that the student can choose from, with the
correct answer called the key and the incorrect answers called distractors.
Correct answer carries one mark, and incorrect ‘zero mark’. There is NO negative marking.
59
Students mark their responses on specified computer-based sheet designed for the college.
The block exam will comprise of 120 MCQs and will be compiled according to the shared blueprint.
Short answer questions generally ask for brief, text-based responses and may also be referred to as fill-in-the-blank;
or completion questions.
Variations of the short answer question may request a list of terms or rules in which the order is not important, or may require a
numerical or formula response.
Easy to write.
Reduces possibility of guessing.
Can have a lengthy stem such as a paragraph. (Caution: You generally should not expect an exact answer character-by-
character.)
May be easy to score if the required answer is short.
60
Disadvantages of Short Answer Questions
All the students are assessed on the same content by the same examiner in the same allocated time.
A structured examination will have observed, unobserved, interactive and rest stations.
Unobserved will be static stations in which students will have to answer the questions related to the given pictures, models or
Rest station is a station where there is no task given, and in this time student can organize his/her thoughts.
The Block OSPE will be comprise of 18 examined station and 7 rest stations. The stations will be assigned according to the shred
blueprint.

Internal evaluation is a process of quality review undertaken within an institution for its own ends. 10% marks of internal
