摘要:

A system of learning pathology based on new teaching methods is described and compared with traditional teaching. The Integrated Pathology Audiovisual Learning System (IPALS) is the product of an international team of pathologists and consists of three tiers. Tier I deals with general pathology, Tier II with the pathology of organ systems, and Tier III with diseases in individual organs. Each unit consists of a textbook with basic definitions, a set of slides and one or more short lessons on tape as a commentary. The importance of teaching in small groups and of clinical-pathological conferences is explained. Autopsy demonstrations and the use of gross and microscopical specimens should, of course, complement the system. The system is in use at many universities all over the world, most extensively at the universities of Oslo and Rotterdam. The advantages and disadvantages of the system and the students' and teachers' reactions to it are discussed.

摘要:

Assessment of a doctor's or student's clinical competence is of key importance. The examiner should ask what competencies he is attempting to assess and how he can best assess them; whether, for example, by using an objective structured clinical examination (OSCE), patient management problems (PMP), supervisors' reports, project work or assignments, or by auditing case records. He should consider the functions of the clinical examination, in particular its role in providing feedback to the student and teacher. With regard to timing there is a place for both in-course and end-of-course assessment of clinical competence. Finally, in considering who should undertake the assessment, the role of the student or doctor in assessing his own competence should not be overlooked.

摘要:

This is the first in an occasional series of articles describing innovations, successful and unsuccessful, in medical education. I t is hoped that they may encourage others to attempt similar experiments4r warn them away from unprofitable avenues of development.The new Clinical Medical School at the University of Cambridge, UK, has established a project to monitor and evaluate its new, shorter course. The background to this unusual decision is described in this article, which then reviews possible evaluation methods, problems, and the planned strategy. The activities include measures of the school's‘ethos’, the teaching/learning process, aspects of its cost, and the quality of its‘product’-the medical graduate. Experiences during the first 18 months of the project are reported.

摘要:

This study was designed to compare the teaching abilities of community-based preceptors and university-based clinical faculty, as judged by two matched groups of students. On only one of 13 dimensions of clinical teaching was there a significant difference between the preceptors and university-based faculty: preceptors were reported to use demonstrations less than their university-based colleagues. The study shows that despite their other commitments and lack of formal training in didactic skills, community-based practitioners can provide sound educational experiences and, in the students' opinions, are as competent teachers as clinical, university-based faculty.
