Transforming Paramedical Education: A Comparative Study of Traditional and Digital Learning Methods
AbstractThis study compares the effectiveness of Chalk-and-Board (CB) teaching andPowerPoint Presentations (PPT) in paramedical education. Seventy-eightstudents were divided into two groups, each taught two topics using CB andPPT methods. Pre- and post-test assessments revealed significant learningimprovements in both groups (p < 0.05). The CB group showed greaterimprovement (Pre-Test: 48.60 ± 2.22; Post-Test: 58.60 ± 2.22) compared to thePPT group (Pre-Test: 47.80 ± 1.93; Post-Test: 54.70 ± 2.06). CB was preferredfor interactive, step-by-step learning, while PPT excelled in visually complextopics. A blended teaching approach is recommended for optimal learningoutcomes.
