Abstract
Nine students completed the course. Mean scores on knowledge and skills assessment significantly improved after completion of the course (54.5% pre-course vs. 79.3% post-course; p < 0.05% and 60.3% pre-course vs. 93.2% post-course; p < 0.05, respectively). Student perceptions of their ability to care for patients with pulmonary diseases significantly increased, compared to pre-assessments, in all areas taught in the course (p< 0.05). Additionally, students' confidence in managing specific disease states significantly improved in all areas (p < 0.05) except for spirometry (p = 0.06). Students' knowledge, skills, and confidence regarding management of common pulmonary disease states improved following this month-long elective course delivered using a combination of TBL activities and hands-on skills sessions.
