Summary

Introduction

Didactic lectures (DL) have been the gold standard and the most common method of traditional teaching and learning practice. Despite traditional preferences for simplicity of lecture presentations, appropriateness for crowded classes, and the ability to present massive amounts of theoretical content, students are exposed to large amounts of information making it difficult to retain, remember, and interpret (Papanna et al, 2013; Jiraporncharoen et al, 2015). It becomes essential to utilize an approach to teaching and learning that best meets the specific needs of the students (Saville et al, 2006). For this reason, modern education systems should encompass multiple alternative teaching and learning strategies which are well validated and applicable to a typical classroom setting in medical schools
