Comparison of Learning Models in Physical Therapy Education

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

With the pandemic affecting the world, education systems have been subjected to mandatory changes without sufficient thought on teaching content, delivery and pedagogy. In this process, physiotherapy courses involving psychomotor skills such as manual therapy became difficult to teach and evaluate. Although the pandemic is over, it is suggested that technological approaches should be used in learning systems and incorporated into physiotherapy education. These technology-supported education models are called blended education models. The use of the flipped training model, a variant of blended training models, can improve practical skill performance. In this study, it was aimed to determine the effect of two different models on the quality of teaching and learning in cervical region manual therapy teaching. Suleyman Demirel University Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation senior students (n=100) will be randomly divided into two groups. The control group (n=49) will be given monologue education with in-class team-based traditional education model. The practical part of the course will be taught in the classroom and applied with patient-clinician role model technique. Homework will be assigned for students to read scientific articles and analyze case examples. The entire six-week teaching program will take place in the classroom. The experimental group (n=51) will be applied the flipped model. The theoretical and practical knowledge of the course will be provided at home with the EdPuzzle education platform. They will be encouraged to read articles and analyze cases at home. The classroom environment will be used to ask questions related to the theoretical part of the course and to practice the practical application as a patient/clinician role model. The seven-week teaching program is planned in the classroom and home environment. In the evaluation of the research, explanatory sequential design method from mixed research methods will be applied. Pre-test/post-test/knowledge retention test, instructional materials motivation questionnaire and skill level/performance evaluation form will be used to evaluate the quantitative data. A lesson observation form will be used to evaluate whether the trainer provided the same competence to both groups. Semi-structured case study will be used to evaluate the reverse-face model to the experimental group with qualitative data.

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
