Abstract

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate students’ knowledge and attitude on the various teaching methods and evaluation methods in pharmacology.


A cross-sectional study was carried out in a tertiary care teaching hospital in Tamilnadu using a pretested questionnaire. One hundred pretested questionnaires were distributed among the second MBBS students and all the students responded. Data analysis is done using MS Excel spreadsheet and percentage observations were noticed. The study demonstrated that the students prefer combined method teaching using PPT and chalk and talk and many students gave the opinion of inclusion of MCQs in evaluation. Majority of the students answered that prescription writing in practical classes is more interesting.
