“…Our study also showed 2.7 times higher odds of getting involved in a health policy role for every unit increment in the score on knowledge about health policy. A new curriculum on health care policies and systems at the Keck School of Medicine of the University of the South Carolina (USA) demonstrated significantly higher post-curriculum scores (16%) among first-year medical students [ 49 ]. Another study showed that a four-week online health policy elective for medical students during the COVID-19 pandemic increased their knowledge and skills relating to essential health policy topics [ 40 ].…”

“…Moreover, the importance of evaluating and remodeling the current health policy curricula, and, particularly, adopting a new “service learning” approach to facilitate student involvement in health policy, can never be overemphasized [ 47 ]. Evidence from some medical schools suggested that training in health policy can be successfully integrated into medical school curricula with positive outcomes in relation to students’ self-reported knowledge and confidence [ 40 , 41 , 49 , 50 , 51 , 52 , 53 ]. This research aimed to evaluate medical students’ perception of a Public University in Malaysia regarding teaching health policy and their participation in health policy roles.…”

Background: Health policy is a set of comprehensive principles and legislations that guide how healthcare should be effectively delivered in the community. Medical schools should prepare students to undertake managerial responsibilities by incorporating health policy into the curriculum to deal with the intricacies of healthcare systems and their clinical roles in their future professional careers. Objective: To examine medical students’ perception at a Public University in Malaysia regarding teaching health policy and their participation in health policy roles. Material and Methods: A cross-sectional study using universal sampling was carried out among the medical students using a paper-based questionnaire to collect the data. Results: Most respondents opined their willingness to learn health policy (80.9%) and that teaching health policy (83.6%) should be compulsory for medical students. The respondents thought health policy should be introduced earlier in Year 1 or 2. The student scores on their knowledge regarding health policy and year of study were significantly associated with their involvement in the health policy roles in both the simple and multiple logistic regression. Both statistical tests reported higher participation in health policy roles with the higher year of study, though only Year 4 and 5 were significant in the simple logistic regression and only Year 5 in the multiple logistic regression compared to Year 1. On the other hand, age and type of admission show significant results only in the simple logistic regression, while the race was only significant at the multivariate level. Conclusions: This study demonstrated that most respondents showed their willingness to learn health policy, participate in the health policy programs, and recommend that health policy be considered an essential topic in the medical curriculum, which should be taught right from the first year of medical school. We recommend encouraging students’ participation in health policy activities.

Rendahnya kompetensi pengetahuan IPAS disebabkan karena minimnya minat belajar siswa dan suasana pembelajaran yang kurang interaktif. Tujuan penelitian ini yaitu menganalisis model Pembelajaran Somatic, Auditory, Visualization, Intellectualy (SAVI) berbantuan media permainan rakyat terhadap kompetensi pengetahuan IPAS siswa sekolah dasar. Jenis penelitian ini adalah kuantitatif desain kuasi eksperimen, dengan rancangan Nonequivalent Pre-test Post-test Control Group Design. Populasi berjumlah 645 siswa. Jumlah sampel penelitian yaitu 64 siswa, diperoleh menggunakan teknik cluster random sampling. Pengumpulan data menggunakan instrumen berupa tes objektif. Teknik analisis data dengan statistik deskriptif dan statistik inferensial. Teknik pengujian hipotesis menggunakan uji-t. Hasil analisis data diperoleh thitung sebesar 5,861 sedangkan ttabel sebesar 1,998. Sehingga thitung lebih besar dari ttabel, yang berarti model SAVI berbantuan media permainan rakyat berpengaruh signifikan dalam meningkatkan kompetensi pengetahuan IPAS siswa SD. Melalui penelitian ini, diharapkan guru mampu menerapkan model pembelajaran inovatif dengan menggunakan model SAVI berbantuan permainan rakyat dalam menunjang proses pembelajaran IPAS.
