摘要:

A key step in the development of any educational programme is needs assessment. Its importance is illustrated in the context of an educational programme on malignant melanoma for general practitioners. Needs were identified through: in-depth interviews with general practitioners, including a critical-incident study; a questionnaire to elicit general practitioners' views on the required programme content; a study of the indications given by general practitioners for the referral of patients with suspected malignant melanoma; a questionnaire sent to plastic surgeons and dermatologists, to elicit their views on indicators for referral; the views of an advisory group of specialists; a review of the published literature on malignant melanoma, including general textbooks written specifically for general practitioners. For the general practitioner managing a patient with suspected melanoma, the key need is deciding whether to refer that patient to hospital. The educational strategies incorporated in any educational programme developed should reflect this key need.

摘要:

Medical students have performed worse in biostatistics than in other clinical disciplines because of their negative attitude towards the biostatistics course, partly caused by the use of lecturers unqualified in biostatistics. Adoption of a step-wise teaching process, the linking of biostatistical concepts to other clinical disciplines and the making of the biostatistics course examinable in all parts of the professional examinations for the degrees of Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery would reduce the negative attitude medical students have towards the biostatistics course.
