Article Description

The integration of the One Health concept into veterinary education is critical for preparing future professionals to address the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health. This study aimed to compare the comprehension of the One Health concept among veterinary students in online ( = 48) and classroom ( = 49) teaching settings and to assess changes in their awareness following instruction by administering pre- and post-course questionnaires to evaluate students' attitudes and perceptions of the One Health concept. An enhancement was noted from before to after education in both settings. However, no significant differences between the online and classroom settings for any of the questions before or after education were detected ( > 0.05). The students' perspectives on the course methodology employed were not statistically different ( = 0.25) between classroom teaching and online teaching. In conclusion, both online and traditional classroom instruction can effectively enhance veterinary students' perceived comprehension of the One Health concept. This underscores the versatility of instructional modalities and emphasizes the need for flexibility in educational practice to meet the diverse needs of learners.
