We might think, for example, that the fulfilment of someone's desire for pleasure, friendship, knowledge, achievement, or autonomy for herself does constitute an addition to her welfare, and that the fulfilment of any desires she might have for others things do not directly benefit her (though, again, the pleasure she derives from their satisfaction does).
The authors define the key principles of CPE: student-focused learning strategies, ability to team work, links between basic and different courses, cross discipline approach, activation of previous knowledge, achievement of understanding borders, ability to formulate problem questions, independent information research, interaction.
We assessed learner satisfaction, initial knowledge achievement and long-term knowledge retention.
This simple, structured intervention improved residents' initial knowledge achievement and satisfaction with engagement.
Because of non-normal distributions, we compared resident satisfaction and initial knowledge achievement scores using the Wilcoxon rank sum test.
To assess initial knowledge achievement, we distributed 5 multiple-choice questions based on topics covered in the conference.
We conducted a prospective, controlled study of the ACTIVE teaching format versus the standard lecture format, comparing resident satisfaction, immediate knowledge achievement and long-term knowledge retention.
In this study, we sought to answer the following question: will the ACTIVE teaching format improve residents' 1) satisfaction with learning; 2) immediate knowledge achievement; and 3) long-term knowledge retention.
There was an improvement in initial knowledge achievement with the ACTIVE teaching format (overall absolute score increase of 11%, P = 0.04) and a trend toward improvement in long-term knowledge retention.
We didn't find published papers that used an objective measure of BMI knowledge achievement as indicator of BMI interventions' educational effectiveness in medical schools, our paper appears to be the first report that shows a significant increase in BMI knowledge in medical students.
