Background & Objective: The educational environment is everything happening within the university including classrooms and departments. Getting feedback on students' attitudes to the educational environment is one of the most important components of evaluating this environment. The purpose of this study was to compare the attitudes of undergraduate students of Ahvaz Faculty of Rehabilitation Sciences about the educational environment using the Dundee Ready Education Environment Measure (DREEM) questionnaire.
Materials and Methods: In this descriptive cross-sectional study, 137 third- and fourth-year undergraduate students in the fields of physiotherapy, speech therapy, audiology, and occupational therapy who completed the second semester of the academic year 2018-2019 completed the DREEM questionnaire. This questionnaire has 5 domains and its maximum score is 200. In this tool, the score indicates more favorable evaluation result. Data analysis was performed using SPSS 18 and One-way analysis of variance test.
Results: The overall score of the questionnaire for all fields was above 130. A comparison of the mean scores of the domains with the one-way analysis of variance did not show a statistically significant difference between the different fields. Tukey's test showed a significant difference between the overall score in the field of audiology and speech therapy (P =0.028). The average score of less than 2 was not observed for any question.
Conclusion: According to the overall score of more than 120 for all fields, the educational environment of this faculty is in good condition and the attitude of students is positive. Lack of proper support system, self-centeredness of teachers, fatigue and disappointing experiences of students need more attention.
