background and purpose: various approaches to learning are suggested & practiced. the traditional medical education were more teacher centered oriented . in this method the students’ involvement in the process of learning is not remarkable, but the new approach to medical education supports the students involvement. this study evaluated the various method of lecturing considering students invol...

results twelve original studies fulfilled the inclusion criteria. the current literature suggests that the learning curve of robotic rectal surgery varies between 15 and 44 cases and is probably shorter to that of laparoscopic rectal surgery. conclusions there are only a few studies assessing the learning curve of robotic rectal surgery and they possess several differences in methodology and ou...

introduction: in the new concept of medical education, creativity development is an important goal. the aim of this research was toidentify a model for developing critical thinking among students with the special focus on learning environment and learning style. methods: this applied and cross-sectional study was conducted among all students studying in undergraduate and professional doctorate ...

this article presents an implementation of a reinforcement learning (rl) method for a snake like robot navigation. the paper starts with developing kinematics and dynamics model of a snake robot in serpentine locomotion followed by performing simulation and finishes with actual experimentation. first, gibbs-appell's method is used to obtain the robot dynamics. the robot is also modeled in simme...

background: team-based learning (tbl) is a structured type of cooperative learning that has growing application in medical education. this study compares levels of student learning and teaching satisfaction for a neurology course between conventional lecture and team-based learning. methods: the study incorporated 70 students aged 19 to 22 years at the school of rehabilitation. one half of the ...

individuals act differently in learning, this being due to the difference in learning styles of persons. learning styles affect optimum learning and the efficiency in educational output. therefore an identification of the learning styles of learners as related to teaching and learning activities is most important. the purpose of this study was to investigate the learning styles of agricultural ...
