Abstract

The effectiveness of bachelor internship program of dietary students in equipping the students with necessary skill, attitude and knowledge has often been a controversial issue, at Tabriz Medical Science University. Variety of factors affects the program effectiveness, including the use of traditional educational strategy of lecturing at orientation session to internship. Thereby, this research was done to explore the effectiveness of problem Based Learning strategy, with the assumption that this strategy with its interactive nature in comparison to traditional one of teaching might improve the skills of the students. Thirty two bachelor students registered to internship program at Tabriz Medical Science University were divided into two groups of case and control according to their grade point average during the past seven terms of study and gender. The case and control group’s orientation programs were conducted using P.B.L. and traditional strategies respectively. The effectiveness of these two strategies in improving the skill, attitude and knowledge were compared using data obtained through an observation checklist and using the t-test and paired t-test. According to the findings of this study, the P.B.L in comparison to traditional strategy was able to improve the students’ skill, attitude and knowledge substantially and thereby to give the students the chance to practice their theoretical knowledge at real work environment. We recommend the use of this method in other fields of study to test its effectiveness.
