The Effective Achievement of Various Active Learning Managements in Clinical Chemistry Course
Main Article Content
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to compare and evaluate the effectiveness of various active learning management methods in a Clinical Chemistry course being taught to 44 third-year Medical Technology students. The various active learning management methods included questioning method; think-pair-share; concept mapping; writing and producing a newsletter; and student-generated exam questions. Student learning outcomes were evaluated by pre-test and post-test, and were then analyzed using paired t-test. The effective achievement of various active learning managements was compared and analyzed by One-Way ANOVA.Our results showed that the effectiveness of all active learning managements had the average score of post-test higher than pre-test at a statistical significance level of 0.05 (p<.001). However, some active learning management methods had no statistically significant differences among the groups (p-value=0.244). Moreover, this research revealed that various active learning management methods improved the effective learning, improved participation in a community-based activities, fostered team responsibility, and created higher order thinking and critical thinking.
