| Introduction: Although traditional lecture method is a good way to transfer knowledge and information however, it is not a proper approach to teach complex and abstract subjects, prolonged learning, and higher level of learning such as analysis and synthesis. The present study was conducted to compare the effect of feedback lecture with traditional lecture on the students’ learning and satisfaction in intensive nursing cares. Method: A quasi-experimental design was selected to conduct this study at school of nursing and midwifery affiliated to Yasuj University of Medical Sciences at the first academic year 2011. Twenty-six sessions of intensive nursing cares lesson were randomly allocated between feedback lecture as test group and traditional lecture as control group. The sample of the study consists of 33 nursing students at sixth semester of their academic years. Students’ learning was evaluated by pre-test, post-test, mid-term and final exams. A valid and reliable form was used to assess the students’ satisfaction and their perspective on teaching methods. Collected data were analyzed using SPSS version 17 and statistical t-test, Mann-Whitney test. Results: The findings showed a statistical significant difference in the mean scores of midterm and final exams between traditional lecture and feedback lecture (P=0.001). Although the students were pleased with both of the teaching methods however, a significant difference was observed in the students' satisfaction with feedback lecture (P<0.05). Better comprehension of taught subject matters, preparation and pre-teaching study, immediate feedback and further acceptance of received comments from the students reported as positive educational outcomes of feedback lecture. Conclusion: The findings of this study showed that feedback lecture was more effective than the traditional lecture on students' learning. Based on the students’ satisfaction and their suggestion to teach other subjects through feedback lectures, further studies are suggested to compare quality of learning through feedback lectures in other nursing courses. |
