Abstract

This paper introduces different teaching aids to enhance the interest in students pursuing medical education. Two hundred subjects are presented with different forms of teaching and their feedback is recorded. The subjects are surveyed on multiple parameters such as duration of the lecture, interaction between students and teachers, using audio-visual aids, emphasis on practical knowledge, concentration and interest generated by the teacher towards the topic. Finally, it is concluded that to maximize the learning potential among the students, the duration of the lecture should be between 45 to 60 minutes with ample audio-visual aids and regular interaction between the teacher and student.
