Preference of Active Learning vs Reflective Learning among Dental Students

V. Deepika | Dr. M. P. Brundha [5]


Abstract: Topic- Preference of Active vs Reflective learning among dental students. Aim Aim of the study is to know the preference of active learning vs reflective learning among dental students. Objective- The objective of this study is to know whether active or reflective learning is preferred among dental students. Background- A number of different models have been proposed to explain these varying learning styles. Among those styles active and reflective learning is a style of learning. (1) Active learners tend to retain and understand information best by doing something active with it such as discussing or applying it or explaining it to others (2). Whereas reflective learners prefer to think about it quietly first. Active learners tend to like group work, more than reflective learners, who prefer working alone. (3) Sitting through lectures without getting to do anything physical but take notes is hard for both learning types, but particularly hard for active learners. (4) Reason- The reason for this study is to analyse the learning style among dental students and thereby modify the teaching pattern that would benefit the students. (5)
