A combination of active learning strategies improves student academic outcomes in first-year paramedic bioscience.

abstract：:Teachers of physiology at all postsecondary levels were asked to participate in a survey about the possible sources of students' difficulty in learning physiology. Sixty-three physiology teachers responded to the 18-question survey; 35 of the respondents also responded to a request for written comments about this issu...
