Abstract:
Traditional lecture-based teaching in undergraduate pediatrics often results in passive learning and suboptimal student engagement, necessitating the search for more effective instructional strategies. The present study was an educational intervention study with a crossover design involving 232 third-year medical students. Students were divided into two groups and attended four pediatric topic sessions over five months. In a crossover fashion, each group experienced two topics via FCM (Flipped Classroom Model) and two via LBL (Lecture-Based Learning). The FCM group received pre-reading study materials and 45 45-minute PowerPoint presentation 4 days before class and a case-based scenario was discussed, while the LBL involved faculty-led sessions with integrated questions and discussions. The flipped classroom model proved to be a more effective pedagogical strategy than interactive lectures for improving immediate knowledge acquisition in undergraduate pediatric education.

Crossover Experiments
Crossover designs are performed even with smaller sample sizes since the samples can act as their controls. These are better than simple randomized trials since patients are exposed to all the treatments.

Avoidance Learning and Learned Helplessness
Avoidance learning occurs when an organism learns that a specific behavior can prevent an unpleasant outcome. For example, a student who receives a bad grade may start studying harder to avoid future poor grades. This behavior persists even when the negative outcome is no longer present. Avoidance learning is powerful because it maintains behavior in the absence of the...
