Abstract Background: The “Stop The Bleed” (STB) campaign has achieved remarkable results since it launched in 2016, but there is no report on the application of a STB course combined with a trauma patient simulator. This study proposes the “problem-, team-, and evidence-based learning” (PTEBL) teaching method combined with Caesar (trauma patient simulator) based on the STB course, and compares its effect with the traditional teaching method in outstanding doctoral candidates training of hemostasis skills.Method: Seventy-eight outstanding doctoral candidates program students (five-years and eight-years) were selected as the research subjects and were randomly divided into a control group (traditional teaching method, n=34) and an experimental group (PTEBL teaching method combined with Caesar, n=44). Their confidence of hemostasis skills and willingness to rescue were investigated before and after the course in both groups.Result: Students’ self-confidence of STB skills and willingness to rescue in both groups were improved after the class. Compared with the control group, students in the experimental group were more confident in compressing with bandages and compressing with a tourniquet after a class (compressing with bandages: control group 3.9±0.8 vs. experimental group 4.3±0.7, P=0.014; compressing with a tourniquet: control group 3.9±0.4 vs. experimental group 4.5±0.8, P=0.001) More students in the experimental group than the control group thought that the use of Caesar for scenario simulation could improve learning (control group 55.9% vs. experimental group 81.8%, P=0.024), and showed higher teacher-student interaction (control group 85.3% vs. experimental group 97.7%, P=0.042) The overall effectiveness of the teaching was better in the experimental group than the control group (control group 85.3% vs. experimental group 97.7%, P=0.042). There was a significant positive correlation between teacher-students interaction and overall effectiveness of teaching (R=1.000; 95%CI, 1.000-1.000; P<0.001).Conclusion: The PTEBL teaching method combined with Caesar can effectively improve students' mastery of STB skills, and overcome the shortcomings of traditional teaching methods, which has a certain promotional value in the training of outstanding doctoral candidates in STB skills.

Background: The flipped classroom model provides an ideal ground to convert a traditional classroom into an interactive environment based on problem-solving learning with a focus on university students’ self-determination. Objectives: The present study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of flipped and traditional teaching methods in problem-solving learning and self-determination among university students. Methods: The research method was experimental with a pretest-posttest design and a control group. The statistical population included all female students of Farhangian University in Ahvaz city in the academic year 2019. Using a purposive sampling method, 36 students were selected and randomly divided into experimental and control groups (n = 18 per group). The research instrument included the Problem-Solving Inventory (PSI) and the Basic Psychological Need Satisfaction scale. The experimental group received the flipped teaching program during eight 120-min sessions once a week; however, the control group received the traditional teaching method. multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA), univariate analysis of covariance (ANCOVA), and Bonferroni post hoc tests were used to analyze the data. Results: The posttest scores (mean ± SD) of problem-solving learning and self-determination were 83.77 ± 14.17 and 119.33 ± 13.79, respectively, in the experimental group, which were significantly different from the scores of the control group. The flipped classroom promoted problem-solving learning and components of self-determination among university students in the experimental group when compared to the control group (P = 0.01). The flipped teaching method was more effective than the traditional method in increasing problem-solving learning and self-determination among university students. Conclusions: According to the findings, the flipped teaching method had greater impacts on students’ problem-solving and self-determination than had the traditional method.
