摘要:

The importance of medical students mastering the process of case presentations has been emphasized in the literature. In a pilot program in the 1992-93 academic year, the pediatric clerkship at Children's National Medical Center introduced the group case presentation, a format that enabled three to four students to work together as a team in preparing the case abstract and oral presentation. This approach was motivated by the fact that most physicians join group practices and are required to work through problems both within and outside their practice. The students have evaluated this innovation positively and it has been implemented in the current academic year. The pros and cons of this process are discussed.

摘要:

The improvement of instructional effectiveness has gained considerable interest during the last few years. Within this framework, the evaluation of teachers' performance has been stimulated in order to provide individual teachers with feedback about their performance. However, only providing faculty members with feedback will not increase their effectiveness. A faculty development programme is required in which is specified: (1) which formal requirements should be satisfied to fulfil the teaching role; (2) how faculty dialogue will be organized; (3) how the information will be used in promotion and tenure decisions; and (4) what kind of remedial teaching programmes will be offered to poorly scoring teachers. The purpose of this article is to demonstrate how tutors within a problem-based curriculum can be evaluated and provided with adequate feedback about their performance in order to improve their behaviour. In addition, the focus will be on plans for action that could be undertaken with regard to the aspects of a faculty development programme summarized above.
