In this study, the effect of conventional in-person education and in-person education based on videos and posters on the level of knowledge and satisfaction of students was compared in the course of clinical applications of laser in dentistry.

In this comparative applied study, 66 dental students were divided into two groups to take the course on clinical applications of lasers. The first group underwent conventional in-person education, and the second group underwent in-person education based on learning aids. The data collection tool was a researcher-made questionnaire that the students completed after completing the course and included 15 questions in two fields, including knowledge level (9 questions) and satisfaction level (6 questions). The data were analyzed with SPSS software (version 24).  Independent sample T-test and chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Significance level was set at 0.05. 

The mean and standard deviation of the knowledge and satisfaction scores of the students who completed the course through conventional in-person education were 24.06 ± 6.8 (out of 36 scores) and 17.09 ± 5.15 (out of 24 scores), respectively. The mean and standard deviation of the knowledge and satisfaction scores of the students who had taken the in-person education based on learning aids were 24.56 ± 7.05 and 17.73 ± 5.1, respectively. Statistical analysis did not show a significant difference between the two study methods (P<0.05).

Following the outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19), virtual education became more popular. This study aims to determine the satisfaction level of medical students in Iran with virtual education during the COVID-19 pandemic.

This is a descriptive-analytical study that was conducted in 2020. The study population consists of all students of medical universities in ten cities of Iran, of whom 1300 were included in the study. To collect data, a researcher-made questionnaire was used with acceptable validity and reliability (Cronbach’s α=0.76). After completing the questionnaires, the data were analyzed in SPSS software, version 22.

The highest level of students’ satisfaction was in two domains of “the method of presenting lessons to students” and “the fulfillment of students’ expectations”, followed by the domains of teacher-student interaction, interest/attitude, and reliability/trustworthiness of the technology. There was a significant correlation among these domains of the satisfaction scale (P<0001).

The satisfaction of medical students in Iran with virtual education during the COVID-19 pandemic is at a favorable level. Therefore, it is recommended to use this education method during the pandemic.

Background and Objectives The COVID-19 pandemic, with its impact on the educational systems, led to the closure of face-to-face courses and the transition of universities to virtual education. This study was conducted to examine the strengths and weaknesses of virtual education based on measuring the satisfaction of medical externs and the quality of clinical education during the COVID-19 epidemic at the Shahrekord University of Medical Sciences, Shahrekord, Iran. Subjects and Methods This cross-sectional descriptive-correlation study was conducted on all 160 medical interns by census. The required data were collected using a three-part questionnaire consisting of demographic variables, the quality of clinical education, and the e-learning acceptance scale. Data analysis was done in SPSS software version 22. Results The results of the present study showed that the mean score of students' satisfaction with virtual education was 41.67±15.33. It was found that the lowest level of student satisfaction was related to the area of interaction and feedback between students and instructors and the lowest quality from the students' perspective was related to monitoring and evaluation. Moreover, there was a positive and significant correlation between satisfaction with virtual education and parents' job, place of residence, and economic status of students as well as between the quality of clinical education and students' satisfaction with virtual education. Conclusion According to the present study, the level of students' satisfaction with virtual education and clinical quality was not at the desired level. Considering the importance of virtual education in various aspects in the current era, it is highly important to recognize the strengths and weaknesses of this type of education and its related challenges and resolve them.

Tests are one of the methods used in universities to measure and evaluate students' learning. Electronic and traditional tests have their unique strengths and weaknesses. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to compare two methods of holding electronic and conventional tests from the perspective of students in the Ferdows Health and Para Medical School.

The current research was carried out in a cross-sectional-analytical way. 201 students were questioned for this research. In order to collect information, a researcher-made questionnaire was used. Its reliability is approved by experts and validity is measured by Kronbakh Alpha74%. Data were analyzed using STATA version 13 software and using descriptive and analytical methods.

The results showed that there was a significant difference between students' satisfaction with traditional and electronic tests (P < 0.05). And traditional tests satisfaction was more than electronic ones. Also, there was a significant relationship between students' satisfaction level and the academic semester in traditional exams (P < 0.05) so the average level of satisfaction of students in higher semesters is higher.

Based on the study findings, students' satisfaction with the traditional test is more than the electronic test, so it is suggested that educational institutions take the necessary measures and plans in order to obtain satisfaction from students with the electronic tests and solve the problems of these tests.

Cardiovascular diseases are responsible for 30% of all deaths worldwide. The present study aims to evaluate the effect of education through online social media (WhatsApp) on the anxiety and satisfaction of candidates for coronary angiography.

In this study, participants were candidates for elective coronary angiography referred to Imam Khomeini Hospital in Ahvaz, Iran from May to July 2021. They were assigned to the intervention (n=43) and control (n=43) groups. Data were collected using a demographic form, the Beck anxiety inventory (BAI) and the visual analog scale (VAS) for measuring satisfaction. Data analysis was performed in SPSS software, version 16 using independent t-test, paired t-test, chi-square test, and Fisher's exact test.

Both groups were homogeneous in terms of demographic characteristics at baseline, and there was no significant difference in BAI scores between the intervention and control groups before the intervention (P=0.229). The results of independent t-test showed a significant difference in the mean BAI score before and after intervention in two groups (P<0.001), indicating the effect of intervention on reducing anxiety. The results of independent t-test showed that the satisfaction in the intervention group was significantly higher than in the control group (P<0.001). The results of the paired t-test showed that in both intervention (P<0.001) and control (P=0.005) groups, the BAI score decreased significantly after the intervention compared to the pre-intervention phase. The effect size of education on anxiety was 0.9 and the effect size on satisfaction was 1.88, which shows the high effect of the educational intervention.

The use of mobile social networks for education is effective in reducing anxiety and improving satisfaction in patients undergoing coronary angiography. Therefore, this interventional method can be used by nurses as an effective method in medical centers.
