| description | Background and Objective: In this modern era, the presence of social media (SM) has increased incrementally especially in the recent years. Education is also changing; social media are transforming educational environments, and online or blended learning are increasingly applied. The COVID-19 pandemic has further accelerated this trend. A new educational innovation where TikTok (a social media that is based on creating and sharing 15-60s videos) which experienced a significant breakthrough during the COVID-19 pandemic is used as a pedagogical tool and therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the effect of TikTok on student learning among physiotherapy students. Methods: Quasi-experimental design was conducted in 60 UTAR undergraduate physiotherapy students with the pre-requisite of the course Physiotherapy in Musculoskeletal Conditions (PTMSK). 60 participants were equally divided into Control group and Experimental group in the ratio of 1:1. Pre-test was conducted before the intervention of lecture class and TikTok videos learning. Online lecture class was conducted for all participants whereas the Experimental group received extra TikTok learning videos. After one week, post-test was conducted. The primary outcome was the clinical reasoning test on the topic of Tennis Elbow. The data collected were then analyzed using Paired Sample T-test and Independent Sample T-test using IBM SPSS software statistics version 26.0. Results: The total participants recruited were 60 students but only 58 of the data were processed. The students consist of 37.9% male and 62.1% female which have mean age of 20.91±0.601. Paired Sample T-test revealed that there were significant differences between pre-test and post-test scores among the control group (p=0.001). Conclusion: In general, TikTok has a significant effect on student learning among UTAR physiotherapy students. |
