<p>The modern time is shaping a world of opportunities that has glorified the role<br />and functions of multinational organizations across the globe. An individual has<br />become a global citizen, who explores employment opportunities in different<br />countries of the world. This has signified the importance of interpersonal skills that allow individuals to connect with people from different cultures. As a result, the role of business communication instructors has become vital because they impart the skills of communication among their students. For this, instructors’ sensitivity towards the teaching methods used in classrooms are of prime significance. These methods determine the interest level and motivation of students towards learning and acquisition of communication skills. Therefore, this study aims to compare experiential learning method and traditional learning method to explore which method inculcates and improves the communication skills of business administration students of a private sector university. The study was conducted in a quantitative paradigm using an experimental research design. The sample size comprised 60 BBA students from two different sections of business communication courses. The data were collected using a pretest and posttest. For the pretest, communication skills were imparted to both the groups using the traditional teaching method that heavily employed lecturing. For the posttest, the controlled group was taught using the same traditional teaching method while the treatment group was taught using the experiential learning method. Mean scores 20.46 &amp; 19.90 with a significant value of 0.375 for the pretest established identical nature of both groups. Mean scores 27.80 &amp; 30.36 with a significant value of .002 of posttest showed that the two groups under study had different identities in scores, which proved that experiential learning method improves students’ communication skills better than traditional communication skills.</p><p><strong>Keywords:</strong> business communication, experiential learning, experimental research, traditional learning</p>

Background & objectives: Traditional teaching is passive and also lacks feedback to the students. Active learning methods have gained importance in medical education. Team Based Learning (TBL) promotes active learning among the students, with limited faculty. The objectives of the study were to compare TBL with Traditional teaching method and obtain feedback regarding TBL sessions from the students. Materials and Methods: Fifth semester students were divided into two groups- Students in A group were included in the TBL session, and those in B group in the traditional tutorial group. An assessment was conducted for both the groups at the end. Feedback was also taken from the students participating in TBL. Results: Mean score for TBL group was signicantly high compared to the traditional tutorial group. Most students opined that TBL promoted active participation and cooperative learning in the students. Many students felt that the session was stressful. Interpretation & Conclusions: TBL is an active and effective interactive teaching-learning method, which encourages students to work cooperatively.

Business education and learning has become formidable and challenging over the last few years. A traditional learning environment is bereft of active learning where students only try to memorise terms and concepts and is unable to apply them to the real corporate world.  It was found in the business communication classes that students fail to comprehend basic business terminology and communication practices and concepts related to organizational administration and functioning.  In such a state of nescience, there was a need to enable the students to maximise learning through knowledge construction in authentic environments that employs the context in which learning is relevant. A suitable teaching method which needs to be dependant on variables such as target audience and content (Gulbahar, 2006) was designed for the business communication classroom that undergrids the theory of constructivism (Piaget, 1963). Constructivism lends to learning that is action-based where learners construe or make interpretations of their world through interactions in the real-world. Students were actively engaged in making sense of different concepts and terms through workplace interactions and observations.  This paper therefore describes an example that builds a dichotomy between knowledge and “learning by doing” which was integrated into the business communication curricula in a tertiary educational system of Oman. Qualitative paradigms, such as semi-structured interviews with students, employee feedback, student portfolios were used to evaluate student’s cognitive domain.

The purpose of this chapter is to investigate if tablet computers help improve primary school students' mathematical achievements regarding addition and subtraction. This research compares the level of mathematical competence of the students taught using tablet-computer-oriented learning method which specifically takes advantage of “realistic mathematics education” (RME) for the concept of addition and subtraction, as opposed to traditional teaching methodology. The designed software consisted of several activities with and without the use of computers for addition and subtraction. It was designed following the background of the RME theory. The present study was a pilot research of quasi-experimental design with one experimental and one control groups. The research results show that the students who were taught with the educational intervention based on tablet computers and RME had a significant improvement in their total mathematical achievement, addition, and subtraction in comparison to those taught using the traditional teaching method.

Objective To investigate the application value of scenario simulation teaching method combined with progressive teaching mode in clinical teaching of orthopedic nursing. Methods 104 nursing interns who were employed in the orthopedics department of our hospital from March 2018 to March 2020 were selected and randomly divided into traditional teaching (TT) group (n = 52) and joint teaching (JT) group (n = 52). Among them, the traditional teaching mode was adopted in the TT group, while the scenario simulation teaching method combined with progressive teaching mode was adopted in the JT group. The theoretical examination results, performance assessment results, comprehensive assessment results, the scores of nurse-patient communication skills, the CTDI-CV (Critical Thinking Disposition Inventory-Chinese Version) scores and the teaching satisfaction in the two groups of nursing interns were compared and analyzed. Results The theoretical examination results, performance assessment results and comprehensive assessment results in the JT group were significantly better than those in the TT group, with statistical differences (P < 0.05, t = 12.91, t = 11.65, t = 9.92). The scores of nurse-patient communication skills and the CTDI-CV scores in the JT group were significantly better than those in the TT group, with statistical differences (P < 0.05, t = 22.18, t = 16.88). Teaching satisfaction of 94.23% in the JT group was significantly higher than 73.08% in the TT group, with statistical differences (P < 0.05, χ2 = 11.6050). Conclusion The application of scenario simulation teaching method combined with progressive teaching mode in clinical teaching of orthopedic nursing can effectively consolidate nursing interns’ understanding of theoretical knowledge and significantly improve the proficiency in operating skills, the nurse-patient communication skills, the critical thinking ability in judging patients' conditions and nursing measures, as well as the nursing interns' teaching satisfaction of nursing, which is of positive significance to improve nursing interns’ nursing quality.
