20.500.12556/RUL-166319 The use of invigilated exams improved students' attitudes towards biophysics a quasi-experimental study Introduction: Negative attitudes and insufficient motivation to study can contribute to poor outcomes when teaching biophysics. Fear of failure can be alleviated by using invigilated exams. The aim of this study was to investigate whether invigilated exams impact students’ self-reported effort to study, their attitudes, and the factors that promote academic performance. Methods: A single-group post-test quasi-experimental study was conducted to explore the attitudes of a sample population. Data was collected using a questionnaire specifically developed for this study. The sample consisted of 472 students from four consecutive academic years (generations). Descriptive statistical methods were applied for data analysis, and average values were compared using the Student’s t-test. Results: Over 80% of students in the first generation reported a high level of fear of failure. After the introduction of new examination methods, this number decreased significantly by more than 20% (p < 0.001, P = 1). Concurrently, the time spent studying increased by over 40% (p = 0.006, P = 88). Furthermore, nearly all students (99%) believed that using information and communication technology (ICT) and social networks enhanced their academic success. Conclusion: The findings indicate that information and communication technology have a positive, though limited, effect on students’ motivation to learn biophysics and their attitudes toward the subject. learning physics academic performance students health internet true false true Angleški jezik Angleški jezik Članek v reviji 2025-01-07 13:11:42 2025-01-07 13:11:43 2025-01-08 04:00:00 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2024 0 0 str. 14-25 no. 2 Vol. 2 2024 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2024-01-01 378:53 2956-0306 10.5937/annnur2-51803 221198083 Pajnic_M_et_al._Ann_Nurs.pdf Pajnic_M_et_al._Ann_Nurs.pdf 1 F254DA35DE35BC291C48FF8AF1AD731D deef3bc88a1b51691585009c4e01e632fa127985b4fccabbd06649304915dcbe 1df16de8-ccf0-11ef-b232-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=197854 https://annalsofnursing.org/article40 1 da0a0d22-ccef-11ef-b232-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=197853 Zdravstvena fakulteta 0 0 0
