Abstract: <\/strong><\/p>\n

Background: <\/strong>The Indian Medical Graduate (IMG) needed to be a life-long learner by self-directed learning. The majority of the classes for first-year medical students were taken by anatomy, with a large number of competencies. So, it was of utmost importance to know whether implementing self-directed learning (SDL) among first-year medical students of anatomy had led them to become self-directed learners? \u00a0<\/strong>So, the objectives were to assess the impact of SDL in anatomy among first-year medical students and to evaluate the attitude of them towards SDL.<\/p>\n

Materials and Methods: <\/strong>This cross-sectional study was conducted among 100 first-year medical students for 06 months. SDL orientation session on Anatomy was conducted, followed by a pre-test on SDL by Self-Rating Scale for Self-Directed Learning (SRSSDL) Tool in the first session of SDL. Four SDL classes with assessment and evaluation of the attitude of students on SDL were conducted. In the 6th<\/sup> SDL session, a post-test on SDL was conducted for evaluation of attitude on SDL.<\/p>\n

Results:<\/strong> Statistically significant increase in post-test score was observed than pre-test score. Almost 1\/3rd<\/sup> of students definitely needed guidance with specific changes and re-structuring the methods of learning. Majority of students were between moderate range on SRSSDL Tool scoring. In SDL Session 6, majority of the students (80%) had high score on that tool.<\/p>\n

Conclusion:<\/strong> Majority of students were identified as half way to self-directed learner before commencement of SDL sessions. After completion of all the SDL sessions, majority of the students had become towards effective self-directed learner.<\/p>\n
