Synergising flipped classroom and case-based learning in resource-intensive anatomy education in China: a quasi-experimental study.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

This quasi-experimental study aimed to evaluate the impact of a flipped classroom (FC) combined with case-based learning (CBL) on the academic performance of first-year clinical medicine students in a human anatomy course in China, with a specific focus on higher-order cognitive skills and self-efficacy.

Study design

A quasi-experimental design was implemented, with participants randomly assigned to an intervention group (flipped classroom case learning (FCCL), n=64) or a control group (traditional lecture-based instruction, n=64). Learning outcomes and cognitive levels were compared between the two groups.

Setting

The study was conducted at a medical school in Meizhou, China, over an 18-week period. The curriculum covered the anatomy of nine major organ sys
