The main objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of multimedia use (preparing lesson content, laboratory content, laboratory education software, application of power point and computer ) in the training of biochemistry laboratory to the students. Methods This descriptive study was performed on 190 first year students in the years 2010-2011.For the study, a questionnaire covering different aspects of method evaluation ( preparing materials, doing experiments, preparing data and discussion on the data ) was designed and distributed among medical, dentistry and paramedical students. The students participated in all levels of the experiment, from preparing the reagents to obtaining data, doing experiments, data collection and discussing on them. When their 4-month biochemistry course finished, an evaluation questionnaire was applied at the end of the course. Data were analyzed by SPSS version 16.0 software using descriptive statistics. Findings 186 students participated by returning filled out questionnaires (97.89% ). When students were asked whether the multimedia was a useful method for the learning of laboratory processes in the course of biochemistry, 45.5% of them agreed. Among students 52.3% of them thought that the multimedia made relevant links between theoretical and practical aspects of biochemistry course. Different students had a high level of satisfaction about the application of multimedia in this course. Conclusion The use of multimedia stimulates the students in the promotion of biochemistry learning. Students believed that the method was satisfactory in their needs about practical aspects of biochemistry laboratory activities. Quantitative and qualitative approach to the results revealed that application of multimedia besides of previous traditional methods may have more efficacy in the training of biochemistry.Durdi QujeqNaghmeh AbbassiKuorush Rasolpour RoshanBabol University of Medical Sciencesarticlelaboratory biochemistrystudentsmultimediamedical educationMedicineREducationLFAآموزش پزشکی, Vol 2, Iss 1, Pp 53-58 (2014)
