Comparison of Physiotherapy Education on Course Basis in terms of Student Satisfaction During the Covid-19 Pandemic Period: Online, Hybrid, and On-Campus Education
Year 2023, Volume 14, Issue 2, 166 - 172, 17.03.2023Abstract
In the study, aimed to compare three different education periods, On-Campus Education (2019), Hybrid Education (2020), and Online Education (2021), in terms of students' satisfaction within the scope of the courses offered in Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation program. The dataset of study collected as a retrospective study from the Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Department in Health Sciences Faculty of Yeditepe University, Istanbul. The spring semester students of 2019, 2020, and 2021 (respectively, n=170; n=158; n=229) participated in the study. The assessment of students’ learning outcomes was obtained from questionnaires prepared by the research team. Answers are allowed upon a 6-point Likert scale (0:Strongly Disagree - 5:Strongly Agree). According to the Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) test results, in the Introduction to Physiotherapy Occupation, Hydrotherapy, Manipulative Therapy-II Functional Anatomy and Kinesiology-II, Neurologic Rehabilitation, Orthosis and Prosthesis Rehabilitation and Physiotherapy in Sport courses, statistically significant difference was found (respectively, p=0.005, p=0.001 p=0.009, p=0.001, p=0.018, p=0.001, p=0.001). According to the satisfaction of the Physiotherapy students at three-grade levels, the courses with high theoretical content may be given online. Therefore, the online system can be integrated into the physiotherapy education system, but it cannot replace campus education in practical courses.
