Bu öğrenme yöntem ve modellerinde kendi kendine düzenleyerek öğrenme, sosyal/bağlamsal öğr...

Recently, integrated and contextual learning models such as problem-based learning (PBL) and brain/mind learning (BML) have become prominent. The present study aimed to develop and evaluate a PBL program enriched with BML principles. In this study, participants were 295 first-year medical students. The study used both quantitative and qualitative m...

In our era in which the higher education is undergoing a fast transformation at the paradigm level throughout the world, it has become imperative to re-handle and restructure the higher education system in all its aspects. In this process, carrying out studies through various methods like holding search conferences/meetings, thematic meetings, work...

The aim of the present study was to determine the learning styles of preclinical medical students and to investigate the interrelationships among the learning style variables. In order to determine the learning styles, Vermunt’s Inventory of Learning Styles (1994) was administered to the 289 students. Chi-square test, factor analysis and multiple r...

This article is based on the experience with 'The Human in Medicine' (HIM) courses that had been a part of the preclinical program of the Marmara Medical School. The evaluation of the HIM course in terms of its efficacy and the impressions of the students. Three groups of data were collected: (a) Students' feedbacks about the courses, (b) HIM final...

Tıp ve eğitim bilimlerinde görülen gelişmelerle tıp eğitimi programlarının yeniden yapılandırıldığı yeni süreçte, eğitim çıktısının (ürünün) karmaşık kazanımlar (performans) şeklinde belirlendiği işe dayalı (task-based) kompleks öğrenme/ öğretim modelleri ön plana çıkmaya başladı. Bu dönüşüme paralel olarak ölçme-değerlendirmede de, bilgi, beceri v...

In order to enhance the quality of integration of physiological basic concepts with clinical sciences and to facilitate problem solving skills, a 'structured integrated interactive' two-hour block lecture on growth hormone physiology was implemented. A template showing the central regulation of growth hormone release and its peripheral effects was...

In recent years, the use of electrophysiological studies, neuropsychological tests and imaging techniques, providing opportunity for the researchers to study the brain both structurally and functionally, have provided considerable amount of knowl-edge, which resulted in important changes in educational areas. During this period, through the impact...

The central nervous system may modulate many aspects of inflammation through alterations of the autonomic nervous system and/or the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. The aim of present study was to examine the impact of controllable acute stress on the course of experimental colitis and to elucidate the roles of serotonin (5-HT) and cortico...

The neuropeptides, as well as their respective receptors, are widely distributed throughout the mammalian central nervous system. During learning and memory processes, besides structural synaptic remodeling, changes are observed at molecular and metabolic levels with the alterations in neurotransmitter and neuropeptide synthesis and release. While...

We aimed to investigate the effects of electric shock (ES) on the course of experimental colitis and the involvement of possible central and peripheral mechanisms. In Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 190) colitis was induced by intracolonic administration 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS). The effects of ES (0.3-0.5 mA) or the central administratio...

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the strong or weak aspects of an interactive study module introduced during the "Cardiovascular and Respiratory Systems Subject Committee" in the second year of the medical program.

The aim of the present study was to assess the role of endothelin (ET) in ischemia-reperfusion (I/R)-induced mucosal injury. Mucosal permeability ((51)Cr-EDTA clearance) and tissue myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity were significantly increased after 30 min of ischemia followed by 30 min of reperfusion. The I/R-induced increases in mucosal permeability...

We investigated the gastric response to an ulcerogenic irritant and the change in gastric functions in an experimental rat model of obstructive jaundice, with or without biliary drainage.
