Performance on exam questions at the end of the course and one year later was compared in an exercise physiology course where students were taught using lecture or problem-based learning (PBL) approaches. Student perceptions were also assessed about the use of PBL. Application of knowledge scores were higher in the PBL group at the end of the term and one year later (18% and 65% respectively).
