Abstract
Context or Setting: The undergraduate MBBS curriculum needs revisions like active learning, exposure to newer teaching techniques, adding some new elements as suggested by MCI in its document Vision 2015. Need for innovation: Traditional teaching-learning process is perceived by students as boring and less relevant to their future goal. So we need to think of methods like integrated teaching and objective assessment methods like structured viva. Learners also need to have some hands on training for skills and active participation in important issues related to their careers. We tried to introduce some of these to First MBBS students. Description of innovation: Vertical And Horizontal Integration (Coordinated Program), Session On “Cardiopulmonary Resucitation”, Structured Viva, Session On “Time And Stress Management”, Programme Evaluation, Written Feedback Was Obtained From Students After Each Session. Lessons learnt : First MBBS students perceive innovative methods interesting and effective. They improve teaching-learning experience and hence should be encouraged.
