Abstract

Introduction: Teaching styles, refer to the methods teachers use to instruct their students, has a significant role in education and frequently reflects the opinions of the teachers. This study aims to ascertain the preferred techniques of instruction employed by the faculty members of Ahvaz Jundishapur University of Medical Sciences in 2020. It does so because of the significance of teaching methods in students' learning.
Materials & Methods: In this cross-sectional descriptive study, 172 faculty members of Ahvaz Jundishapur University of Medical Sciences were included in the study using a stratified sampling method. The 40-question Grasha-Richman standard teaching questionnaire was used to obtain the data. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, chi-square test and Pearson correlation by SPSS-18 software.
Results: The 172 faculty members who took part in the survey had an average age of 45.95±8.8 years, with 90 (52.5%) men and 82 (XMRformal authority style (27.9%) and the expert style (23.8%) than other types (p = 0.007). The delegator style and the personal model were the least used styles by the faculty, each with 15.1% and 12.2%, respectively. The facilitator approach was also used by 20.9% of the participants. According to Pearson's correlation coefficient, there is no statistically significant relationship between an instructor's teaching style with their age, gender, academic standing, or teaching experience (p>0.05).
Conclusion: The results showed that faculty members mostly use teacher-centered formal authority and expert styles in their teaching, which are non-interactive and inflexible. Given the importance of teaching strategies in the learning process and the need to increase instructors’ awareness of interactive approaches, it is advisable to enroll in training programs in this area.
