摘要：The goal of this study was to assess student perceptions of a variety of instructional practices and attitudes toward class attendance.Data were obtained and analyzed by administering a questionnaire to students of the Shifa College of Medi_x0002_cine,Pakistan in 2011 and 2012.The subjects positively assessed most instructional practices,and in particular felt that teaching sessions conducted in small groups were more valuable than formal lectures in large groups.Students did not like having to give presentations,quizzes,panel discussions,and journal club.A positive correlation was found between the perceived importance of attendance and levels of academic motivation.Of the students surveyed,11.8% were against mandatory attendance,saying that it reduced motivation and that attendance should be optional.In conclusion,the students had a positive perception of a range of instructional practices,and felt especially positively about practices that involve student activity in small groups.Programmatic improvement in instructional practices might increase class atten?dance.
