Classroom data collected through continuous learning activity from everyday class assessment, Daily laboratory data collected through the practical records and laboratory assessments and Human resource (HR) feedback was collected, analysed and then conveyed by HR department to the investigators. A course end evaluation was conducted through the administration of a questionnaire to all participants.
