  • Human Biology Pedagogy

Background:

  • Traditional didactic lectures are common in higher education.
  • Student engagement is crucial for effective learning.
  • Perceptions of teaching method effectiveness can vary.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess student perceptions of teaching method effectiveness in Human Biology lectures.
  • To compare the efficacy of didactic versus active learning strategies.
  • To explore factors influencing these perceptions, such as student age.

Main Methods:

  • A survey was conducted among Year 1 and Year 2 students at Dorset House School of Occupational Therapy.
  • Students evaluated various teaching methods employed within the lecture format.
  • Data analysis focused on perceived effectiveness and potential demographic correlations.
