Abstract
Objective
To explore the influence of classroom-based physical activity (CB-PA) on the teaching quality of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) for medical undergraduates.
Methods
Students from 8 classes participating in the clinical medicine program of the affiliated hospital of Zunyi Medical University were divided into two groups. Four classes received regular teaching on the SLE chapter as the control group, and the other four received CB-PA intervention as the experimental group. After class, the basic ability (diagnostics and pharmacology scores in sophomore year) and teaching quality scores were collected and compared using a questionnaire. The performance of the 2 groups to the SLE review questions was compared.
Results
The scores of learning interest, the degree of satisfaction with the courses, and the level of mastering the teaching contents in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group. The evaluation of the teacher’s teaching level increased considerably. The experimental group’s performance was also better than the control group’s (the assessment performance was adjusted with the basic ability).
Conclusion
CB-PA in teaching SLE improves students’ interest in learning, teaching satisfaction, and mastery of knowledge and may ultimately enhance their assessment results.
