Abstract

Background: -Video-based teaching, a distance learning tools is widely beingused in the present COVID-19 pandemic. Present study compares cognitive and affective domains learning outcomes between traditional and video-based physiology lecture.
 Methods and material: -A total of 25female students of Applied Medical College, Prince Sattam bin Abdul Aziz University, kingdom of Saudi Arabia during 2019 were selected for the study. Physiology course consist of 45 credit hours in a fifteen-week semester. Students were evaluated by various methods for different levels of cognitive and affective domains between traditional method of endocrine physiology lecture session and video-based digestive physiology lecture session. Marks obtained by each student in all the assessment methods of cognitive and affective domains were calculated to get a total mean score and expressed in percentage and compared between the traditional and video-based physiology lecture.
 Results: -The total mean score for all the assessment methods of the cognitive domains in the digestive physiology lecture with video was 70% and endocrine lecture without video was 50%.The total mean score for affective domain in the digestive physiology lecture with video was 80% and endocrine lecture without video was 50%.Cognitive domain show no major difference between traditional endocrine physiology and video-based digestive physiology lecture, while student performance was good for affective domain in the lecture supported by video.
 Conclusion: -Video-based teaching helps the learner to achieve objectives of the different levels of affective domain compared to cognitive domain as well as compared to traditional lecture with no video.

Highlights

  • Introduction: - Physiology is a basic fundamental science for many medical and para medical health programs

  • Majority of the student suggest physiology as a very vast and difficult subject to understand and retain in memory. It brings a greater challenge for the teachers to make understand physiological concept,1because of its theoretical nature that requires rational efforts by student to understand the mechanism of the body function.2Therefore it is essential that student utilize effective learning strategies to overcome these difficulties for better understanding of any subject in order to achieve the course objectives and learning outcome.3Physiology teachers need to adopt different teaching-learning strategies that are preferable for helping different students to learn and achieve the course objective effectively.4Video-based teaching materials have been sought to offer a promising method in delivering the intended learning content that may not be available in the traditional print-based illustration.[5]

  • Incorporating videos in traditional lecture will be able to achieve course intended learning outcome, since video is considered as a successful medium, because it links the audio and visual together to provide a multisensory experience for the learner.[6]
