ChatGPT-supported problem-based learning to build physiotherapy clinical reasoning

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

At Medipol University, 2nd- and 3rd-year undergraduate physiotherapy students will be assigned to either a ChatGPT-supported problem-based learning (PBL) module or a traditional low back pain education program. The AI-supported arm uses ChatGPT to generate case prompts, offer feedback, and personalize learning during interactive PBL sessions while the control arm follows standard instructional methods. Outcomes measured before and after the intervention include theoretical knowledge tests, structured clinical decision-making assessments, and learner attitudes toward interactive AI learning. Results from both groups will be compared to determine differences in skills and satisfaction.
