Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q3 i3 In the network meta-analysis of 13 satisfaction studies (849 students), SBL ranked highest (SUCRA 96.2%), significantly outperforming PBL (SMD = 1.62), TBL (2.77), and LBL (2.64). → Zhang Shuai-Long 2024

q3 · i3 · quant-synthesis · r3
Network meta-analysis of 13 studies encompassing 849 students reporting satisfaction scores. Printed effect sizes: SBL versus PBL SMD = 1.62 and versus TBL SMD = 2.77; SBL (2.64, 95% CI 1.28–4.00), FC (1.34) and PBL (1.02) also beat LBL; SUCRA showed "a high probability (96.2) that SBL would most significantly enhance student satisfaction scores".
"the students’ satisfaction scores were significantly higher in students learning with SBL strategy than in those students learning with PBL (1.62, 95% CI (0.01 to 3.22)) and TBL (2.77, 95% CI (0.43 to 5.11))."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Differences among the six novel teaching strategies are minor, and in pairwise meta-analysis only BOPPPS and SBL significantly beat LBL on all three outcomes — related
- More PBL than LBL students report satisfaction with improved communication skills (RR = 1.66) — related
- Trainees report higher satisfaction with simulation-based learning than with non-simulation-based learning in endocrinology education — related
- Most new teaching methods reduce dissatisfaction relative to LBL, with WeChat-based combinations most favoured by residents — related
- TBL produces significantly higher theoretical test scores than PBL in medical education (SMD = 0.37) — related
