Seminar-case learning model improves clinical teaching: a prospective randomized controlled trial.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

The purpose of this research was to assess whether the efficacy of the seminar-case learning model is superior to the traditional lecture-based learning model in the gastroenterology curriculum for first-year graduate students.

Materials & methods

This research was a prospective randomized controlled trial that enrolled 92 first-year postgraduate students with a rotation internship in the gastroenterology department. The students were randomly divided into 2 groups and then subjected to an identical version of the curriculum for 8 weeks. The experimental group (n = 50) used the seminar-case learning model, while the control group (n = 42) used the traditional lecture-based learning model. Examinations consisted of a theoretical test and a case analysis
