Abstract: (210 Views)
Introduction: The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, in addition to putting the health of societies at risk, brought about significant impacts on various aspects of higher education. The aim of this study was to assess the readiness for self-directed learning in students of Jiroft University of Medical Sciences in the academic year 2021-2022, during the coronavirus pandemic.
Materials and Methods: This is a cross-sectional (descriptive-analytical) study that was conducted on 238 students of Jiroft University of Medical Sciences.In this study, participants were selected using the convenience sampling method. Data collection tools included a researcher-made demographic questionnaire and the standard Fisher’s Self-Directed Learning Readiness Scale. Data analysis was performed using statistical methods such as percentage, mean, standard deviation, t- student, and analysis of variance (ANOVA), results were evaluated using SPSS version 22 at a significance level of 0.05 (p≤0.05).
Results: Out of a total of approximately 1,041 students of Jiroft University of Medical Sciences, 238 participated in this study. The findings showed that income level significantly affected students’ self-directed learning. Also, the self-control dimension in medical students was different from that of students in environmental health engineering and laboratory sciences (p<0.05). Conclusion: Income level and field of study can affect students' self-directed learning. As a result, teaching students self-directed learning skills is an essential part of the teaching-learning process. This type of education should be implemented in universities to promote learning independence, lifelong learning, and the preparation of future health professionals of the country in a competent manner. |
