The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of an integrated teaching-learning approach for Phase I MBBS students using the Kirkpatrick evaluation model.MethodsThis educational interventional study was conducted from September 2023 to August 2024 at Government Medical College, Datia, involving 150 Phase I MBBS students. Three core topics, Cardiac Cycle (Physiology), Heart (Anatomy), and Lipid Metabolism (Biochemistry), were covered through didactic lectures under an integrated teaching program. A pre-test and post-test design was employed to assess knowledge gain. The intervention was evaluated at three levels of the Kirkpatrick model: reaction (student satisfaction), learning (knowledge improvement), and behavior (student perceptions regarding program organization). Student feedback and faculty feedback were collected using non-validated structured questionnaires. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and paired t-tests in Jamovi v2.3.28, with p < 0.05 considered statistically significant.ResultsParticipants were 52% men and 48% women, with a mean age of 19.2 ± 1.1 years. Student feedback revealed high satisfaction, with the majority rating the sessions positively. Significant improvements were observed in post-test scores across all subjects (Anatomy: p = 0.036; Physiology: p = 0.001; Biochemistry: p = 0.004). Organizational aspects of the program were rated highly.ConclusionThe integrated teaching approach effectively enhanced student satisfaction and learning outcomes. The findings support the inclusion of integrated teaching as a regular strategy in the medical curriculum to improve foundational learning.
