Methods: This action research study was conducted through Lewin's model with the participation of stakeholders including midwifery students, midwifery experts, and midwifery department head. Five focus-group discussions were held. Data were analyzed through conventional qualitative content analysis and the suggested solutions to promote the quality of clinical learning were designed as a one-by-one teaching model. Then, according to developed training program, intervention was conducted in two semesters.

After implementing a one-by-one model in two semesters, effective hours of student presence in the clinic and the number of services performed by them increased in each work shift and generally skill, personality, and management of the improved  factors.
